I'm working on a portal site (similar to the CodeCharge examples). Using
CCStudio 2.
The portal site lists url's that the user should click on to take to a
third-party site, BUT I want to track the "popularity" of these links.
What is the best way to "count" how many times a link is clicked?
Thanks for any help you can offer.

There is not much you can do on a plain URL "link" control. It only
provides a "Before Show" event.
However, you could set up these links so they direct you to a "warning" page
that tells the user they are about to navigate to a site outside of your
control. This page could have some code in its "Before Show" that updates
the database table where you store your counters. This page could then
redirect automatically in a few seconds to the desired location (pass this
value as a "Link Parameter" on the link control).
