My web host provides some statistics, but people want more. There was some discussion on the support forum about downloading the log file and doing analysis on their PC. I haven't noticed anyone mentioning that they have tools to do this on the PC. If you have Euphoria code which can analyze an Apache web server log file then I would be happy both to use it and to promote it on my web host as an efficient and effective way to do this analysis. It might generate some more interest in Euphoria. Do you have such a program that you would be willing to put in the archive? (A quick search did not find such a program based on a search for "apache log" in the archive.) -J. Kenneth Riviere
