[dba-Tech] .js help?

Hi Kathryn

What do you want to do?

1. Change the background colour?
2. Automatically monitor and retrieve a twitter feed?
3. Add and and subtract messages?

Have you downloaded all the components of the
http://www.hivhope.net/includes/header.htm site?

Jim

You guys are smart so maybe you can help. 

According to Twitcker, 

++++++
The normal displayed tickers are twelve, but you could de- or increase it
(from 6 to 30).
Just add to http://twitcker.com/ticker/HIVHope.js a ?count=NUMBER,
example:
http://twitcker.com/ticker/HIVHope.js?count=20    
++++++

I have the .js on my site as I couldn't figure out how to modify the one on
Twitcker to show my colors etc. 
Right now, there are 9 Tweets at http://twitter.com/HIVHope. I wanted to
experiment with the number, so I added

http://hivhope.net/ticker/HIVHope.js?count=6 as you'll see if you look at
the source in http://www.hivhope.net/includes/header.htm  (vs the place it
is included: http://hivhope.net)   

However, it didn't change the count. When I look at the .js that I copied
from Twitcker, all 9 Tweets are included there. Logic says that even when my
friend adds more Tweets, they won't be included because they are being
pulled from the .js instead of Twitter - which makes the whole thing moot.

What am I missing? 

Can you tell I know nothing about .js?
