I'm having a problem. I have a page with about 1,200 buttons, the website will not be a membership website, I just want to be able to keep track of each visitor to ensure that a button that they clicked on cannot be clicked by them again until 24 hours have expired.

I know i could use cookies, but thats too much for 1,200 buttons.

Here is what the buttons html are like:

```
<li><a href="http://google.com" class="btn_smallorange" id="button1">Button 1</a></li>

```

Do you have any suggestions -- I am open to almost any type of script, but know that this website was made with PHP?
