Hit counter on homepage that tracks the page views of a different page

How can I accomplish this for free?

[cy182]

I would like to put a hit counter on my homepage that tracks the page views of one of my other pages, not the homepage. For example, I want the counter to be located at www.website.com, but I want it to track the hits from www.website.com/search.htm. How can I do this for free? Also, no-ads would be excellent as well. I've found a bunch of free, great hit counters, but none of them are what I'm looking for. Thanks

If you are capable of running either .asp or .php, there are free scripts available. However, I am not sure if you can put the display on a different page than the script. But if you search for "hit counter scripts" you should find something.

The counter script writes the latest count to a database, or to a file, and then the other page can simply read that data and display it there.

Nothing difficult about that at all.
