Fátima Chapri	Saturday 07 February 2009 1:09:48 am Hi, Let's say that I have a pdf file and that I need to know the number of times the file has been downloaded through the "download" view of the "content" module. For that, I used the <i>download_count</i> attribute of the ezbinaryfile. But the point is that whenever i download a file, the output of <i>download_count</i> doesn't change. I tried clearing the cache and refreshing the page but without success. I can only see the changes when I close the page and re-open it again. Do anyone knows why it happens?

Hi,

Let's say that I have a pdf file and that I need to know the number of times the file has been downloaded through the "download" view of the "content" module.
For that, I used the <i>download_count</i> attribute of the ezbinaryfile.
But the point is that whenever i download a file, the output of <i>download_count</i> doesn't change.
I tried clearing the cache and refreshing the page but without success.
I can only see the changes when I close the page and re-open it again.

Do anyone knows why it happens?
