Hello

I have seen some tutorials to put a update a counter field in a record. I
have the counter field in a table that also has a field for a path to file.

I display the records in a table on a web page e.g.

IndexNo ............Title................................ Link
.................................... Count
......1.............MyFileName........www.mysite/files/MyFileName.doc........
......0
etc

User can click on the Link field in the table to download the file.

The problem is I can't find a way that will run an update query along the
lines of

$Query = mysql_query("UPDATE Resources SET Count = Count + 1 WHERE IndexNo
= '$IndexNo');

when the user clicks the link

Can anyone suggest a way or direct me to a tutorial

Thanks
Ian
