New "Popular Scripts" Feature

I was curious as to which scripts were the most popular -- I know which ones are selling well, but which ones are getting the most views? So last night I added a feature to the FileCABINET program, which is the backbone of Intelliscript.net.

This new feature allows me to click a 'popular' link to view the number of views each script is getting. So far the results are actually somewhat surprising!

Since some of the popular scripts are not the ones being most-often purchased, I must assume that something about the script isn't quite right. Maybe it's too expensive, maybe it doesn't have all the right features... maybe something else.

I'm often surprised that I don't get more emails from people about this sort of thing. It can never hurt to request a customization from a software author. I do it all the time, and many authors are glad to add a new feature if it will enhance the usefulness of the program.

So if you're reading this, and you want to see a feature added to Questionnaire, HomePage2, Dictionary, or another script-- please feel free to ask! :)
