Statcounter and Wordpress blog

[Frostblue]

From what I've read it seems Statcounter doesn't work well with free Wordpress blog, since Wordpress doesn't allow javascript and Statcounter only works best in the javascript version.

I did install Statcounter in my free Wordpress blog and the counter does seem to work fine. The only problem is that on my site the counter doesn't really display correctly - meaning instead of only having the Statcounter button, there are also parts of the code displayed on top of the button as well.

It would be weird if this'd mean in order to have Statcounter with my blog I'd have to put up with having the codes shown on my site. It's not a big enough reason for me to either give up Statcounter or Wordpress, but it is still quite an annoyance.

Any help would be much appreciated.
