Counter Help-

liunx · Jan 9, 2008

Most webmasters will probably dislike me for this, but I have a good reason for it- 
 
Here's my situation: 
 
AOL deleted my counter that I've had for two years, I tell them that, and they say "It must have been currupted or damaged, blah blah blah (they didn't even see my counter) and in the end, told me to get a new counter- turns out the new counters condensed the size of the code (the reason why they purposely deleted mine). 
 
I had over 7,688 visitors to my site, and now, I must start back over at 1. So, I created a webpage that had 80 frames- 4x20. Each frame loaded a page (the page was the same for every frame) and it contained the counter (so, going to the page once would load the counter 80 times)- however, this was not the case, as it only loaded once in each frame, not changing the number. 
 
I experimented with some coding and then it started to go up and up, but then would reset back at one. 
 
Is there any coding to prevent this?? 
 
My counter:

My tested code to hopefully work for frames page:

</htpdiv>Um just get a bravenet counter and start your tracking at 7,000 the idea of tracking is to see your audiance though not to say look how many people visited my site. <a class="postlink" href="http://www.bravenet.com">www.bravenet.com</a>I'd rather not use a bravenet banner- just try to answer my question 
 
I also don't want to just add 7K visitors- that would look tacky. If anyone can help, please help!

PS: PeOfEo-your clan website, the cursor on the homepage is copyright of Blizzard Entertainment and you could get into some legal issues (from the game Starcraft)- At least try to give the original authors credit (I didn't see one though)
