 * Hi,
    I have the following for my archives: <form name=”archiveform” action=””
   > <select name=”archive_chrono” onchange=”window.location = (document.forms.archiveform.
   archive_chrono[document.forms.archiveform.archive_chrono.selectedIndex].value);”
   > <option value=”>Monthly Archives</option> <?php wp_get_archives(‘type=monthly&
   format=option&show_post_count=true’); ?> </select> </form> It’s doing what I 
   want, almost. I would like the post count to show. Even though I have the option
   set for that, it’s not showing. Any ideas? I went into the templates-function-
   general.php and changed it from false to true in 2 areas in the archives section,
   but it didn’t do anything. It works if it’s not in a drop down box though. My
   categories have a count, with no problems at all in a drop down box. Thanks, 
   Sara 🙂

 * I guess you didn’t read the post closely. I have that code in my parameters already
   and it’s not working.
