Thread: Javascript Arrow Leftover

I tried putting a hidden counter on my page in JavaScript and each time I tried, (3), when I opened the page I got a (-->) where the counter was. I put it in in HTML and it seems OK. I just wondered what's up with the javascript version?? Thx, #34460

Can you give a link to the page that the "-->" is appearing on (always give a link to the page if you are asking something specific such as this).

I can almost guarantee you it's from a comment in the javascript, and probably a syntax error causing it to show.

I didn't put that page up because of that error. On the page I reworked, it is a black BG and it doesn't show, but here is the script itself...

<!-- GoStats JavaScript Based Code -->
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://gostats.com/js/counter.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">_gos='c3.gostats.com';_goa=314563;
_got=5;_goi=1;_goz=0;_gol='invisible counter';_GoStatsRun();</script>
<noscript><a target="_blank" title="invisible counter"
href="http://gostats.com"><img alt="invisible counter"
src="http://c3.gostats.com/bin/count/a_314563/t_5/i_1/counter.png"
style="border-width:0" /></a></noscript>
<!-- End GoStats JavaScript Based Code -->

If that doesn't help enough, I can replace the BG and upload it again, thx.....

* Might want to Google for a " Free Javascript Validator" .... a number of sites feature these free tools ... and quadruple-check you copied the entire script properly!

Thx for the tip.....
