A hash is a mathematical algorithm that produce a unique number after analyzing each file's contents? But then again what if the html templated gets updated? That update action will create a new hash for the file, hence another counter will be created for the same file, same end result as (1) solution. > > Pros: If filepath is altered, that won't affect the counter. > Cons: If file's contents gets updated the, then duplicity will happen. > > >> 3) Keep an external list of filenames, and their associated id numbers. >> The database would be a good place to store such a list, in a separate table. > > I did not understand that solution. > > > We need to find a way so even IF: > > (filepath gets modified && file content's gets modified) simultaneously the counter will STILL retains it's value. > You don't yet have a programming problem, you have a specification problem. Somehow, you want a file to be considered "the same" even when it's moved, renamed and/or modified. So all files are the same, and you only need one id. Don't pick a mechanism until you have an self-consistent spec. -- DaveA
