Hi,

Is there some simple way to just get a counter of the number member 
subscribed in a list?


So it can be put back in some html content.

I've a script for another tool which outputs JavaScript for example:

document.write('927');


(not related, searching the word "counter" gave me this page : 
http://wiki.list.org/display/~valium I suppose you can safely remove it)



Regards,
Sylvain.

Thanks.

I don't have shell access on the mailman server, me neither.

So I wrote:

wget -O - --post-data "adminpw=${adminpw}"  \
"${listserv}/cgi-bin/mailman/admin/${listname}/members" > out

And started to hack with sed…

This gives some partial result:

sed -n '// { 
s/<[^>]\+>//g  ; s/[^0-9 ]\+//g p }' out | awk '{print $2}'

927

The output stored in "out" have some accentuated character not matching 
the current locale of my bash session. So it seems complicated to 
perform the match with sed only…


I've rewritten it in PHP for the web purpose. It is simpler to match number.
I share it here, in case of some interest:
