I have recently opened a weblog on blogger. I would like to add a counter in order to know how many people visit my page... I guess not many :-)

Here is the link they give to sign up for a counter: http://help.blogger.com/bin/answer.p...1&topic=12

I have to add the HTML code into the template I use to create the weblog. I have no idea where to put it. Can anyone look at the code down and tell me where I should put it. I have not been able to find help for that.

Thanks

dopik

the template code:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en">
<head>
<title><$BlogPageTitle$></title>

i do not know which counter you signed up for. i have used re_invigorate and i like it.

so i am going to use that as the example. go and sign up with them and they will give you the html code you need. let us say it is this "CODE"

re_invigorate's code is invisible to the end user, so it does not matter where you put it, since all it does it send a notification to the re_invigorate server saying that someone went to your site. so i would just put the re_invigorate code right here:

<body>
"CODE"
<div id="header">

in your page.

if you are not using re_invigorate and the code has something show up, then reply with more details and the code and we can find a place that looks presentable to put it.
