Re: Rainbow Pearl Not So User Friendly
-----------------------------------
Hi Joshua,
Thank you ever so much for getting back to me 
I am indeed putting one line of html code into the overall footer.html to make a small banner show up which counts the people visiting on my directory 
theres no java or fancy stuff all that happens is when somebody loads the page and the banner shows too then my server picks that up as one response 

now so far try as i might inserting the code onto the html page and FTP  uploading it back into it's directory does not work although the PHPbb 3 program shows the line is on that page 

the banner does not show and if you view source the page the code has vanished too although the forum program and CuteFTP still show it their

I found by accident if I install the line of code directly into the PHPbb 3 board  template editor that the banner did indeed show but did not function i.e. it did not add page responses to the directory as it should it just sat their 

I cant believe just how difficult adding one small banner to the foot of this forum page is turning out to be
in PHPbb2 all you did was stuff anything you wanted in the overall footer  file and off it went quite happy

as i say i could see if this was using java or something complicated but you dont get much simpler than a banner at the foot of a page ?

thank you again for your help hope I've explained my problem a bit clearer

best regards
Ian
