<img width=0 height=0 border=0 src="http://url/cgi/counter.pl/teller" >

And i want to make the image invisble. But now i'm getting a small dot.
Anybody knows how to fix this?

width and height attributes have a minimum value of 1. You can use
style sheet to set the display attribute to none, and provided you give
the image an id or a name attribute, you can use javascript to
manipulate this.

If all you want is for the image to be invisible, with no image
manipulation in-page, I suggest the following code:

---snip---

---end snip---

Another option is to place this image next to another larger image that
you want to be visible, so people won't notice it.

Since this appears to be a hit counter image, I suspect it would be more
efficient to look at your server logs. Presumably you don't have acess
to them.

Ok, so i tried this::

<img class="b" width=0 height=0 border=0
src="http://url/cgi/counter.pl/teller" >

and this in the <head>:

<style>
img.b {
display: block;
}
</style>

But that isn't working...

What's wrong with it?

That's not very nice

I haven't got much acces permission , otherwise i would be done hours ago...

Try

<style type="text/css">

</style>

Note the keyword "none". Also, as I said earlier, width=0 is NOT a valid
attribute. Only integers 1 or greater are valid. Same goes for height.

One point: If you do successfully set it not to show, some browsers
might 'intelligently' decide to save bandwidth by not downloading a file
that the browser knows won't be displayed at all.

Neither are images that serve no useful function in the interface from
the visitor's pov.

Last point, if you are actually paying for your web space as a
particular service (as opposed to, say, web access plus web space as a
package), and they wont give access to logs at all, complain loudly.
