Hi,
If you just want to call a PHP script every time your HTML page is
requested, you could do something like:
[HTML page]
<img src="http://www.example.com/yourphpscript.php">
That way that script is called exactly 1 time for each time the HTML
page is requested.
Alternatively use JavaScript to fetch an image, but that will fail of
course if JavaScript is turned off.
Pay attention to aggressive caching strategies by the browser to make
sure it is called every time.
(Maybe let the PHP script return a valid 1x1 image with appropriate
headers.)
