Fireworks HTML pointing to loacl drive

[clivehenderson]

Hi
I've created a menu in fireworks and exported it to Dreamweaver without any reported problems. It tests OK locally. However when I FTP it to my site the images don't show and when I do a property check they are pointing to my local drive.
Any help appreciated.
Thanks
Clive

Have you uploaded the images?
If so, check the links are for the web URL, not for a local file.
If the image links are pointing at say "file//../../directory/image.jpg" then you need to change it to the web url for each image.
your image link within the html page should be
<img scr="

http://wwww.yourdomainnamehere.com/images/image.jpg">

(changing "yourdomainnamehere.com" to your actual domain name) if you don't have your images in an image folder, leave out that part of the URL (although I recommend that you do keep all images in a seperate labeled file for ease of use)

Hope that helps.


Sometimes, when my code just won't behave, I take it outside and make it listen to britney spears music, and when it comes back it's really well behaved. I wonder if it's suffering from post tramatic stress syndrome now..

Thanks DaRNCat
The only way I could get it to work was to delete the directory and re-export to a new one. Weird but it works.
Thanks for the reply.
