Client-Side Javascript cannot keep state information for multiple client requests - hence you cannot keep track of each user in one script and have that display results to everyone.

Server-Side Javascript has "project" and "server" objects that you could use to track each visitor; however that language is depricated and was proprietary to Netscape servers only.

You are going to have to use an active server-side scripting language to keep track of "state" information to accomplish what you need:

1.) PHP
2.) ASP
3.) Perl
4.) Java Servlets
