Hello
My site offers downloadable software.
Can anyone provide me an ASP script with which I can track the total number of download requests, total complete downloads.
Thanks

Tracking download requests isn't a problem.
My ASP page tracking script in it's temporary home. Uses MySQL but will switch to any DB by changing the connection string.

www.cands.dnsalias.com/articles/code/asp/page-tracking/

script code (forced) download link on the page. don't try copy and paste as my display code breaks long lines rather than messing about with wrapping (or not as the case maybe)

Checking completed downloads is impossible without some code running on the client. Because of the way HTTP works once the request has been served to the client browser the server has no further communication with the client until another request is sent.

Thanks Chris.
I also thought about complete download in the same manner. But the download.com's sponsored listings made me think otherwise.
