wha? :S im back to confused, which site do you mean? the old one or new design?? expand and explain please ;-)

ah! i get it! but the home page has the images in the center enlarged ^o) ill test it and see how it looks, it mihgt be becuase they might not be uploaded, gimmie a sec...

hmm... the icons are uploaded and the directory is right, but they arent showing up for some reason, you can see they are supposed to be there in the source. ah well, ive already started on a new design that i like, hehe, hopefully this one ill stick with, thanks for the help!!

Nope seems it cant find the files
eg:
http://methos2.skarz.co.uk/icons/graphics(mouseover).png

quote:
he requested URL /icons/graphics(mouseover).png was not found on this server.

misspelled directory/filenames?

but yeh the new design looks better, it needs a background colour/image

If you want you can use the one that im using. Its coded by -dt- and its too simple to use.

It has 2 files, the counter.php and the count.txt

Include the counter.php in your page where ever you want using the code

code:
<?php include('counter.php'); ?>

The counter.php increments (increases) the count in count.txt by 1 and then displays it ... :D

You can see it in action at http://jalife.be at the bottom.
The script is at http://www.jalife.be/counter.php Just hit refresh and see it run ;)

Just thought (*stares at dt*) i should add the source code before you ask ...

http://www.jalife.be/up/files/Web%20Counter.zip

Just get that zip ;)

I wrote a readme and stuff way back once when i got bored :P
