Website uploading problem with graphics... Help...

alirob12

Hi

I am redoing my website, and am using Frontpage (I know...) I havent got time to learn HTML, so am just doing what I can... So I am adapting a template which I downloaded and all is good apart from the fact that certain graphics are not showing when uploaded... - eg the header, the menu buttons etc.. everything else is fine but that... any idea why?
All template graphics were in the image folder, but i also copied them to the main folder and still no joy... any idea? I ve uploaded the whole folder via ftp and not sure where i am going wrong? please help... if you can pls pm me and will send you the url. thanks

Have PM'd you.

Hi alirob. See your next PM. Definitely a problem with the code not loading the graphics properly.

frontpage has a habit of leaving Graphics with a path of eg:-

C:\website\image\picture.bmp

you need to edit out the path before you upload

Wombat

Yep. There are no calls in the uploaded HTML code for these graphics files.

took me days to work that one out the first time

thanks very much guys - how do I edit the code? do I got to HTML coding and do i manually put the code but where do i put it in? id appreciate help with editing the code!!
many thanks

yes, go into html mode , look for the picture name in the lines of HTML and make sure that it does not say c:\ etc , just mypicture.bmp with no path

Search for instances of image tags (coded with <img>).

alirob - what's the file extension of your Header graphics file? Is it .jpg or .bmp or what?

alirob12

thats great thank you - they are all jpg. so should b quite easy? so in html - i search for the file path - and get rid of the c: and leave the rest - great!
