Sorry, not sure how to update the recipe page (password?). Also not sure if it make sense to just change the recipe to use the old names. Guess it would depend on how many users will be affected either way. Anyway, this is what I was going to append to the top of the TotalCounter recipe page: >>bgcolor=#ffeeee<< * I found that '''''migrating''''' from the '''''1.5''''' version to '''''1.8a''''' that I lost all of my prior total counts. I saw no mention nor documentation that the files where the counts are persisted to was renamed. I found that to retain the prior version total counts you can do one of two things: ## Rename the old file names to the new names. ''This seems to be the better option because you do not have to maintain the change for future script versions.'' ## Change the 1.8a script to point to the old version named file. ->Here are the file names for the different versions: ** Version 1.5 : *** $file = '''.total.counter''' *** $lock = '''.total.counter.lock''' **Version :1.8a *** $file = '''totalcounter.stat''' *** $lock = '''totalcounter.lock''' *IchBin ~~~~ >><< -- Thanks in Advance... http://weconsultants.prophp.org IchBin, Philadelphia, Pa, USA http://ichbinquotations.awardspace.com ______________________________________________________________________ 'If there is one, Knowledge is the "Fountain of Youth"' -William E.
