ASP and VBSCRIPT

Ok, got a stored procedure that will update the "hits" field in the database when a user accesses a particular record. That is grand and I can get the number of hits for each record.

Now what I want to do is get a total number of all the hits added together. Basically add all of the individual hits of each record to get a total number of hits. If someone can give me some basic code for this, that would be great.

Next is I want to show what percentage of hits each record got. So, this will be divide field "hits" for record_id by total number of hits multiplied by 100. Can someone supply me with this script as well.

Cheeurs in advance.

ok, youd be best to start this out in sql...<pre id=code><font face=courier size=2 id=code>SELECT sum(hits) FROM yourtable</font id=code></pre id=code>The code for the percentages would look something liek this<pre id=code><font face=courier size=2 id=code>SQL:
SELECT therecord, hits FROM yourtable</font id=code></pre id=code>then the code <pre id=code><font face=courier size=2 id=code>&lt;%
rsarray = recordset1.getrows
max = ubound(rsarray,2)

<font color=green>'first, get the total number of hits</font id=green>
dim total
total =0
for i=0 to max
total = total + rsarray(1,i)
next

<font color=green>'Write out a line for each record</font id=green>
for i=0 to max
therecord = rsarray(0,i)
hits = rsarray(1,i)
response.write therecord & " " & hits & " %" & (hits / total) * 100 & "&lt;br&gt;"
next
%&gt;</font id=code></pre id=code>I hope that was not too confusing... this code assumes that there is a recordset name recordset1 using the sql that I showed.
