Get a Firefox download counter for your blog, I wrote a quickie plugin for WordPress that’ll grab and cache the number. (11)

Hi.
I’m getting an error with your plugin. Just wondered if you accepted bug-reports or if thats restricted to wordpress support?
This is my error:
Warning: fread(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in *******/wp-content/plugins/firefox-counter.php on line 22

And it works like a treat Matt, I have it running on my blog and it’s very effective

Nice. I may use that sometime soon.
You’re coming to Japan, eh? If you come through Nagoya, drop me an e-mail, and I can play tour guide!

Nice. A image with the count on it would be better, but ohh well. I’m using it now, And It looks alright.

There already a image on it, you just need to read the comments

Dave, Im talking about the counter. Its a number, not a number on a image.

Thanks Matt, works smoothly!
Check it out on my site.
I have combined the counter with a FF-image and the links to ‘browse happy’ and ‘digital-proof’… seems like a trio.

How would I go about shortening the time it takes to refresh the counter?

COOL Plugin!
One thing though - I am occasionally seeing this error:
# Warning: mysql_affected_rows(): A link to the server could not be established in /home/…/…/…/wp-includes/wp-db.php on line 155
Usually I do not see this error - but I am wondering if there is a way to clear this all together… is it occuring at intervals where the feed is updating? Anyway…
Thanks for a simple way to spread the word!!
