This type of question is probably better addressed to a webmaster newsgroup,
such as alt.www.webmaster or perhaps alt.html.

A white box with a red cross in it would indicate that your browser cannot
load the image.

What is the URL of your webpage? Are you hosting it on your PC? Let me know
and I'll have a look and see if there is anything obvious.

I can see where the counter should be (bottom right of page) but I only see
a white square with a cross in it, i.e no image.

The image is being produced (as you already know) from the line:

<img
src="http://onehomebiz.com/php/DOLcounter.php?counter=mnlester&domain=www.onehomebiz.com/team/mnlester"
....

this is well formed, so I can only assume that the php counter isn't
working. I think you'll need to contact the webmaster of onehomebiz.com for
to advice on why this isn't working.

Alternately why not try a different counter, there are lots of free ones out
there, for a list see http://www.cryer.co.uk/resources/websitecounters.htm.

A word of advice, its not worth trying to hide your HTML code. Anyone who
wants to see it can see it, all it does is slow them down.

Sorry I can't help further, but I hope this is useful.
 
Hi Brian; Thanks for all of your great help I will try your reccomendations,
I'm afraid that I'm not up with the comp langauge what do you mean by HTML
code?

How is your website hosted?
 
By "HTML code" I was simply referring to the HTML that is your webpage. If
you use a WYSIWYG tool to generate your page then you probably never need to
look at the HTML. If you were to open the page using notepad then what you
would see is the HTML. The line I referred to (and copied in) was part of
the HTML for the page.

As for hiding your HTML, you have something on the page to try to stop
someone from looking at the HTML. Thats what I was referring to as being
annoying - because I had to work round that to see the HTML for the page.

Hope you get it fixed.
