An access log is a text file that contains an extensive report on all of the files accessed by your Internet site visitors. All the files that were requested in one way or another shall be included, so when you have a PHP script application and a site visitor opens just the home page, for instance, you might find numerous files in the log. The reason is that there are things on the home page that are embedded - parts of other webpages, graphics, etc. All of these files will be listed in the access log, so you can get a full picture of the way your website works. The information is in plain text format, so the logs are frequently called "raw data" as well. An access log contains the name of each and every requested file, the path to it, the date it was accessed, along with the user’s IP address, web browser and Operating System. More info, such as the referrer site, is usually provided too. A log file can be processed by various desktop apps for statistical purposes as an addition to the web statistics supplied by your website hosting server.
