Re: looking for a method to record 'page views'

i did see that article but i think im goign to go with a different
approach...

i'm making a table called visits with four fields

id ->auto increment
listing_id ->related listing id
timestamp ->now()
ip_address ->users ip

basically whenever a listing is view i will execute an insert on the
database logging the information. when i display the stats i will run
queries off the table.
i have a feeling this isn't going to be very MVC compliant but bottom
line is i need to get it working. i have a few concerns about database
performance but i think it will be better to do it this way than a log
file/cron job method.
