I have a photo gallery at pbase.com
(http://www.pbase.com/richards1052/). I'm trying to add a
sitemeter.com hit counter which uses javascript code. However, it
appears there are some Javascript restrictions on PBase to avoid
harming code.
A pbase member told me I could do the following:
"1. Put your Javascript code into a file with .js extension. Use a
real code editor: Visual, Dreamweaver... Don't forget to remove html
tags from it: <script>...
2. Copy into an account on the web you can access, there are some free
ones.
3. In PBase code, don't write your javascript, instead, link to the
..js file you created, it sould be working."
Since I'm not a js expert, I'm having trouble following his
directions. I've take the js code (see below) and saved it in a
Notepad file w. a js extension. But I didn't understand what he meant
by "remove tags." What specific tags need to be removed; should I
remove just the carats, the entire tags? I guess I didn't do this
part of the operation right because when I try to open the .js file I
get a Windows script host syntax error. I assume that means I haven't
edited the code right for it to be a true js file.
Next question I have is how should the link be forumlated in the
pbase.com template so that every time there is a visitor the hit will
be counted at sitemeter.com?
Here's my sitemeter.com html code before any editing:
Can you tell me how it should look as a .js file & how precisey I
should "link to the .js file so that the hit counter will work.
Thanks, Richard
