You don't. phpOpenTracker logs accesses to your web site to a database.
This is not visible to the user. If you want to retrieve the stored data
you need to use the phpOpenTracker API and write your own code to
display the data or ...

You can use the example reporting tool that is supplied. Copy the
docs/example/simple_report directory a directory you can access from the
web and load up http://yoursite.com/[...]/simple_report/index.php

The manual explains this. If it's not clear enough let me know.

"For a detailed example of this, have a look at the examples/webbug/
directory."

That should be no problem. You will be using an IMG tag with the address
of the SRC being the server where you have phpOpenTracker installed.
