An access log is a text file containing a complete list of all of the files accessed by your site visitors. All the files which were requested in one way or another will be included, so when you have a PHP script program and a website visitor opens just the home page, for example, you may find a lot of files inside the log. The reason is that there are resources on the home page which are embedded - parts of other Internet pages, pictures, etc. These files will be listed inside the access log, so you're able to get a complete picture of the way your site functions. The data is in plain text format, so the logs are frequently described as "raw data" as well. An access log provides the name of each requested file, the path to it, the date it was accessed, as well as the user’s IP address, web browser and Operating System. More information, such as the referrer website, is sometimes supplied as well. A log file can be processed by various desktop applications for statistical purposes as an addition to the web statistics generated by your website hosting server.
