Info: It only works if you ARE a guest, OR if there is already a guest online. It only did it for me when there was at least 1 guest or more, but when there was 0 online it acted like it should.
Here is a quote of a test I did with 4 times I clicked the Home button:
QuoteRefresh 1 : 31 Guests
Refresh 2: 32 Guests
Refresh 3: 33 Guests
Refresh 4: 34 Guests
I'm using IE6.0
Yes. I logged out so I was a guest, and repeatedly hit it when it was displaying 43 guests...unless they were all gone and just still showing up. Any how, it never incremented past 43.
That's not correct, that there is a max number of guests. I got it past 48 Guests as well. So this is an easy way to set a new record for most users online.
There, a new record set.

yup thats like what i've seen too.
seems only to do it for the home page not other pages like support etc so prehaps its due to the news on the home page
yup verified. only does it for links that go to the index
News..on... d'oh. That might actually be it.
Thanks, I'll look into it.

FIXED!! Oh yes it's FIXED!!!!
It was a problem with the site not the forum, greatfully.
-[Unknown]
Now I'm worried again:
157 Guests, 31 Users
-[Unknown]
yeah it looked that way because other sections that used the stats (SSI?) didnt do it..
it appears fixed.. but is it not going down now? lol
I even cleaned the active log - it just went back up to 130 in some time.

Maybe you just have that many guests online :)

I was wondering if that's the case but it seems awfully unlikely. I guess I minus well start logging more things in log_online...

Yea, if you temporarily log the IP address's I guess you can work out what is going on ???
prehaps stickeng a counter like the one @ http://www.gtchat.de/main_en.html temporarilly might help confirm if its a real number... Downloadable in the "other" secrtion.
That should help to be a more accurate number. And maybe you can put in some simple php commands at the footer on every page for your IP - Hits and - Visitors or something like that ;)
Just my 2cent.
