Could anyone help me do the following:

I have a download site where I want to do a download counter for each page and that when clicked, the number of downloads on the page will be updated automatically.

You can do this with PHP and MySQL:

$sql = "Select CAMPO from TABELA where PAGINA like 'NOME DA PÁGINA'";
$numero= mysql_query($sql);

while ($tipo = mysqli_fetch_array($numero)) {
    echo: "Nº. de Downloads: "  . $tipo['CAMPO'];
}

An interesting solution is to use .txt files to store this record since it is not so much a thing to have in the database.

Example:

Create a file named download.php with the following content:

<? php
$Down = $_GET['Down']; ?>

< html >
  < head >
  < meta http - equiv = "refresh"
content = "0;url=<?php echo $Down; ?>" >
  < /head>
   <body>

      <?php
      $filePath = $Down.".txt";

      /*Se o arquivo existe, leia o contador que ele possui senão inicialize com 0*/
$count = file_exists($filePath) ? file_get_contents($filePath) : 0;

// Incrementa o novo valor e subscreve com o novo número
file_put_contents($filePath, ++$count);

// Mostra o contador atual
echo "Downloads:".$count; ?>

< /body>
</html >

Hello, here is an exact tutorial related to what you are looking for.

Here you check the example demo by running and doing exactly what you need.

Step 1 of 7 - Create Database

CREATE TABLE 'download_manager' (
  'id' int(6) unsigned NOT NULL auto_increment,
  'filename' varchar(128) collate utf8_unicode_ci NOT NULL default '',
  'downloads' int(10) unsigned NOT NULL default '1',
  PRIMARY KEY  ('id'),
  UNIQUE KEY 'filename' ('filename')
) ENGINE=MyISAM  DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8 COLLATE=utf8_unicode_ci;

Step 2 of 7 - configuration.php

<?php
 $db_host       = '';
 $db_user       = '';
 $db_pass       = '';
 $db_database   = ''; 
 $directory='files';
?>

Step 3 of 7 - connect.php

<?php
  require_once 'configuration.php';
  $link = @mysql_connect($db_host,$db_user,$db_pass) or die('Unable to       establish a DB connection');
  mysql_set_charset('utf8');
  mysql_select_db($db_database,$link);
?>

Step 4 of 7 - demo.php

<?php
// Error reporting:
error_reporting(E_ALL^E_NOTICE);

// Including the DB connection file:
require 'connect.php';

$extension='';
$files_array = array();


/* Opening the thumbnail directory and looping through all the thumbs: */

$dir_handle = @opendir($directory) or die("There is an error with your file directory!");

while ($file = readdir($dir_handle)) 
{
    /* Skipping the system files: */
    if($file{0}=='.') continue;

    /* end() returns the last element of the array generated by the explode() function: */
    $parts = explode('.',$file);
    $extension = strtolower(end($parts));

    /* Skipping the php files: */
    if($extension == 'php') continue;

    $files_array[]=$file;
}

/* Sorting the files alphabetically */
sort($files_array,SORT_STRING);

$file_downloads=array();

$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM download_manager");

if(mysql_num_rows($result))
while($row=mysql_fetch_assoc($result))
{
    /*  The key of the $file_downloads array will be the name of the file,
        and will contain the number of downloads: */

    $file_downloads[$row['filename']]=$row['downloads'];
}

?>
