Updating List

Ok i have a site about GAmes.. it has all links to a bunch of Flash and java games found all over the net. and i was wondering if there a a coding that will make the links be in the order of most popular

Example:
Game 1 (has been click 5 times)
Game 2 (has been clicked 5 times)

some one clicks on game 2 and it should be in this order now

Game 2
Game 1

if u has any other question about what im looking for please ask.

Here's a listing of some already made scripts that may do just what you're wanting http://www.hotscripts.com/PHP/Scripts_and_Programs/Click_Tracking/

If you download some of them and try them out and take a look at the code in them you'll probably get yourself an idea of how it's done in PHP anyways.

Also, for future reference if you need to add or delete something from your post you can use the edit button rather than replying to your own post.

um those r all php/mysql

i am just wondering if there is a way to do it without php.

Well there's other ways to do it, or well other languages you can do it in such as Perl. There is no specific code you can just add to your page and automatically have it do what you're wanting though. You'll most likely need to run an entire script of some sort, either in Perl, PHP, or some other ServerSide language.

You can probably find some sort of free service out there though that will allow you to add some code to your website to track how many times links have been clicked and such, but you'll be limited in what you can actually accomplish with it. There's also paid services that will do this kind of tracking for you.
