I had similar problems. Additionally, that's pretty unpythonic
code, as the "correct" answer would be something like
print text.count("a")
which obviates the whole looping/testing/counting aspect, letting
Python just do its thing instead.
The whole thing also seemed to fail if JavaScript/Cookies were
turned off (I don't know which was the culprit...two strikes was
enough to ).
