I'm having trouble getting a counter to work on my site. I went to cPanel and created the counter then transfered the html to my page, however I get this message, inside a counter frame on my website, when I try it ...
Counter datafile "/var/cpanel/Counters/tcvfdorg.dat%7Cdisplay=Counter%7Cft=6%7Cmd=5%7Cfrg b=100;139;216%7Cdd=E" must be created in cPanel first!

It looks like I'm missing a folder.

Can anyone help?
Thanks, Brian

Try creating it again using the name of your page as the "Counter Name". For example "index". Click "Make HTML". Copy that html to your page html.

On my page http://www.philsden.com/06/sunfun1015.html the code for the counter is <img src="/cgi-sys/Count.cgi?df=1015.dat|display=Counter|ft=6|md=5|fr gb=100;139;216|dd=M">
where I named the page 1015.

The html program I was using (Nvu) was changing the " | " sign to " %7C " . I pasted the html into another html program, saved & uploaded, and it worked fine.

Thanks for your reply Phil
