Need help with the Hit counter

    Hello,

    I've been using this HTML code for a hit counter on my page (www.proz.com/pro/75702):

    <div align="center">
    <TABLE CELLPADDING=0 CELLSPACING=0 BORDER=0><TR ALIGN=CENTER><TD><div align="center"><IMG SRC="http://count.digitalpoint.com/" ALT="Hit Counter" BORDER=0 WIDTH=88 HEIGHT=19><span FACE="Arial" style="font-size:11px"><BR></span></TD></TR></TABLE>
    <font size="1" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"> visitors since May 20, 2004</font></div>
    HTML:
    I got it from some random place and I didn't know how it worked or anything else about counters (or about HTML for that matter - at the time).

    The problem is that half the time the counter reads "bad counter html please try later". Other times the image is ok and displays the real counter with the number of visitors.

    Does anyone know if this can be fixed without starting the counter over? Is there a way to update the html code to something that is more robust? Or is there indeed a problem in the piece of code I quoted above?

    Thank you so much for your help.

    You would need to copy/paste (and not edit) the counter HTML code exactly.
