in my first php project, i created a php class to manage SQL functions in general, and used this class to create a table containing the unique IP address count of all visitors to the page. repeat visits are counted by IPA and a total count of unique visitors is provided. each IPA in the table is a link to an ip addr lookup site. to test, find your IPA in the table, refresh your browser, and check the count. the focus of this project was to combine php, mysql, html, and a simple css using the netbeans IDE.
