sorry, but i think you'll encounter problems with that.. everytime the
doGet()/doPost() method was invoked, it will increment. but what if that
servlet is often called due to same functionality.. or the user keep on
going to the same page.. i mean the user goes back to main page.. therefore
with the same user, you could get numerous visits.. i think it would be
ideal to use session.. once the user visited to the site or page, you should
increment the no. of visitors saved from a file or database.. then whenever
the user logged out, remove the session... if the user visited again, it
will be counted again.. if the site doesnt support logging out, the session
is active as long as the browser is running.. if you think ites not
pratical, i would suggest you use what Mr Ramarao had said.. but u dont
actually get the no. of users who really visited the site, but the no of
times the servlet was called.
