Photos not showing on my website

Hi

Thanks to all the 'Techie Stuff' help I have had this week I finally managed to launch my website. Unfortunately my photos aren't appearing. Does anyone have any ideas please ?

Thank you

Bizzy

Check that the links to the photo's aren't trying to link to an area on your hard drive, and are infact pointing to the correct place on your website????

I did load the photos too but might it be possible that the links are still looking at the hard drive. I'll give it a go, thanks.

If it's not that, check that the photo's actually uploaded, and the fact that they uploaded to the correct folder.

If you are still stuck, PM me the address of your website if you want to, and I'll see if I can see anything wrong

There's also the possiblity that names on your hard drive included capitals and your uploading software could be set to force all filenames to lower case. That would mean that your links on your pages are looking for "MyPicture.jpg" but the file's name on the server is "mypicture.jpg" and to a computer - those are completely different names and so it can't find the one it's looking for.

the line on your index.html file shows

<v:imagedata src="blue%20dolphins%20web%20site%20to%20be%20launched_files/image002.png"

should say

<v:imagedata src="image002.png"

That'll only apply if it's a unix based box. Anything with IIS and it won't take character case into account.
