Set the include_path =

That's right, nothing. That will fix part of the problem. If you have errors inside your easycounter.php file, it will error out and the file will not be included. Also, you have your main file as index.htm with the PHP code in it? Unless you have htm set to be parsed by the PHP interpreter, you should probably rename the extension to .php
