Small update: Course View Counts
Not much, I just added an asynchronous AJAX call to all course HTML pages to call a script on the server that increases the view count for that course by 1.
Interesting: In Firefox when I reload the course’s description page I see the updated view count immediately, on MS IE (7) I see the update only after two minutes - which is correct, since the script that loads the data incl. the view count for a course asynchronously (AJAX) sends an Expires: header two minutes in the future, to prevent repeat calls when a user does simple back/forth navigation.
