Hi All,
The strangest thing is happening. I have an html page that I upload and the code looks like this:

Code:
   <table>
     <tr>
       <td width="630">
	     <h1 align="left" class="style4" id="siteName">Capitol Heights Law Group <span class="style12"><sup>PLLC</sup></span></h1> 
       </td>
       <td width="305" align="right">
         <img src="images/capitol.gif" width="120" height="80">         
       </td>
     </tr>
  </table>

Well, I upload the page and the capitol.gif doesn't show up - and I view the source and it looks like this:

Code:
   <table>
     <tr>
       <td width="630">
	     <h1 align="left" class="style4" id="siteName">Capitol Heights Law Group <span class="style12"><sup>PLLC</sup></span></h1> 
       </td>
       <td width="305" align="right">

       </td>
     </tr>
  </table>

What the heck is happening???

Thanks,
Hailey
 

A few possible suggestions:

1. You have an image / ad blocker running
2. You have a firewall running
3. You have illegal whitespace characters in your source.

To rule out 1 and 2, try the page on several different machines - or post the URL here for us all to try.

To rule out 3, delete all whitespace (including the line breaks) before and after the image tag.

Hope this helps,
Dan

 
I tried to take out all of the white space before and after the image and it didn't do anything. I tried it on a computer at work and it worked just fine. However, it wont work on my home computer on either Mozilla or IE.

Here is a link to my page:
It's the top right capitol building image that doesn't show up for me - but everything else does.

I also enabled pop-ups on my aol toolbar.. and uninstalled my yahoo toolbar.

Any other suggestions?

Thanks!
Hailey
 

try uninstalling your AOL toolbar, and any other toolbars, blockers, and firewall software you have.

The image shows up fine for me, so I can only imagine one of those is causing you grief.

Incidentally, rolling the mouse over the image for me before the page had loaded caused infinite JavaScript errors... you might want to look into that.

Hope this helps,
Dan

 
as Dan said you must have a banner ad blocker on.

the image is a .gif and within the size parameters and position that these blockers use to decide that a site logo is a banner ad.

So long, and thanks for all the fish.
 
Very interesting....I turned off all of the ad-blockers I could find and disabled my Norton Antivirus Software and it still gave me the problem. I must be missing an ad-blocker someplace. You guys said that it must be the perfect size .gif for an ad so I increased the pic from the height of 80 to 85 and width of 120 to 125 and it worked. Thank you two for helping me figure this out - wow, was it frusterating to spend all of this time on it!!

Now, it's off to figure out my JS Errors..ha! ;-)

Thanks again!

Hailey
