1. turn on ob (output buffering at the top of the script
2. where you want the counter to be, echo something unique like [EMAIL PROTECTED]@
3. once the script has ended flush the contents of OB into a variable like $obContents
4. do a str_replace('[EMAIL PROTECTED]@',$yourCounterValue, $obContents)
5. echo the $obContents to the screen
I think a smarter way would be to re-organise your code somehow so that it does what you want, but maybe that can't be done (no way to know without seeing the code).
Good luck,

Anyone know of a way to use a variable that isn't defined until further down
the script at the top. I have a counter and once everything runs through
the script, the count is complete, I need to display this at the top above
the displayed results. I thought about and tried a function but I still run
into the same problem.
