You need a server. Hit counts need to be stored somewhere, which requires some type of server side code. There are services that can host this for you, and then provide you with some javascript code to put in your pages. But really, why do you need a hit counter?

Well, I need a hitcounter to see how much people are visiting the site, and the daily counter for the daily visitors.

I asked about the server issue, because I haved downloaded free hitcounters from the web and they worked just fine , without a server and my pc was not connected to the internet, and the counters worked well.

The problem is, that I want a selfe customized counter that fits to the webpage graphic, and of course, not having to use a server.

Your web logs are a much better source of this information and provide many more details. Most host include access to the logs and a statistics application that allow you to make sense of it all.

Sorry, but this is simply not possible. In order for a page to increment a counter, it needs to use a server - either your own server or a remotely hosted server. HTML pages can not update counters. It requires server side scripts.

I don't understand why you feel you don't need to use a server. You have a server, right?
