-button to follow a link

Any suggestions? Thanks.

Your host should provide these as logs. It's very "my first homepage" to
have visible page counters.

Where can you find the logs if you have a web server?

Rob McAninch screams, but nobody listens:
Consult your host or your server manual.

And if you are on those free hosting services like GeoCities? NO WAY to access
the logs. :(

Now that you have gotten a few replies, I'll post my bit.

First, none of this is possible with HTML alone - it all requires some
sort of CGI or a setup provided by your host.

Hit Counter - Rather than tell the world how few (or even how many) hits
you get, look into server logs as someone else mentioned. So long as
you're on a decent webhost there are some stats you can access. Check
their help files for more info.

Password pages - if you are on an Apache server, you can do this yourself
without any witchcraft. Check with your host on this. A host I do a site
on provides secure passworded directory login as part of the package, you
don't need to upload anything special.

Button links - if as I suspect, you want a form button to open the next
page, don't. Unless the link is generated as the result of a form, where
you really have to use a submit button, make a static link look like a
link for usability.
