novice needs help

Am trying to get a counter working on my home page. Thing is, I’m using a template design that allows you to cut n paste html in to pre-formed building blocks. When i paste this code (for the counter):

<a href=”http://www.htmlcounter.com/?ref=script” target=”_blank”><img src=”http://www.admo.net/php-bin/counter.php3?id=script&dd=36” BORDER=”0″ alt=”This counter provided for free from HTMLcounter.com!”><br>
<font face=”Verdana” size=”-3″>HTMLCounter.com</font> </a>

…in to the window it comes up with “& nbsp” showing on the finished page.

I think I have to have a head and body code and put the counter code inside the body, but I have no idea what that code should be or what I do or don’t need.

I’d appreciate any help with this.

Thanks in advance

Al

@alipaliauthorJul 12.2003 — Thanks for the reply.

That's the only code I have. I've tried other codes for counters, they all work except for that damn "& nbsp" thing appears.

I think it's to do with the page builder that helps you build the site that i'm using. It just asks you to insert html or a picture or text, or whatever.

The counter code is meant to go into existing pages--I don't really have that.

That's all I can say--which might be completely wrong?

Thanks again

@DaveSWJul 12.2003 — Make your page first, then open the page in notepad and paste it in just before the </body> tag at the end.

@alipaliauthorJul 12.2003 — Dave, there's no way I can do that with the kind of bespoke web site builder program that came with the template I bought(was from Network Solutions).

Each page has building blocks and each block is like a page in itself. Effectively, I need the code for a single page with just the counter inside of it.

If i was doing that, would this be correct, or something similar?

<head>

[B]HAVE NO IDEA WHAT GOES IN HERE![/B]

</head>

<body><!counter code start!>

<a href="http://www.htmlcounter.com/?ref=script" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.admo.net/php-bin/counter.php3?id=script&dd=36" BORDER="0" alt="This counter provided for free from HTMLcounter.com!"><br>

<font face="Verdana" size="-3">HTMLCounter.com</font> </a><!counter code end!>

</body>

Can you or anyone fill in the blanks?

Thanks again, really appreciate the help.

@DaveSWJul 12.2003 — I think you need to enclose it in something else.

<html>

<head>

<title>Title to go in bar at top</title>

</head>

<body><div><p><!counter code start!>

<a href="http://www.htmlcounter.com/?ref=script" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.admo.net/php-bin/counter.php3?id=script&dd=36" BORDER="0" alt="This counter provided for free from HTMLcounter.com!"><br>

<font face="Verdana" size="-3">HTMLCounter.com</font> </a><!counter code end!></p> </div>

</body>

</html>

I also suggest you download a proper editor like html kit from www.chami.com
