pictures

[Guest_imported]

hi. I am workin on a little webpage and i have several pictures on it. When i publish the file, noone of the images work. I uploaded all the images and swf. files but still none of them show up on the page. If i veiw each one seperately from the file manager, they show up fine, but not on the webpage. Does anyone know why this is happening. Please help if you can. Thanks.
Glass..

Hey, what web host do you use?? Like angelfire, geocities, etc... Because the problem may not be on your end, maybe that hosting comp. does not handle .SWF extension...
Or look at your code, make sure that .SWF is a relative link, maybe when you originally linked it was in a diff. folder...know what I mean??
What is the website URL??

These suggestions have happened to alot of web producing people I've known over the years. Please don't be offended if they seem simplistic. A great many people, including myself, have encountered these challenges.

1. Check the case of your image files versus their callouts on your web pages.

Windows and MAC operating systems do not care about case. But, your webhost's UNIX system is very particular.

For example:

mydog.jpg MYDOG.jpg Mydog.jpg MyDog.jpg mydog.JPG will all work well on your local Windows or MAC system. But,the images will not work on a webhost's UNIX (LINUX) system.

Although Dreamweaver takes care of this problem automatically, you may have hand-coded the images in.

2. Make sure whatever directory structure you've set up on your local machine for you website has been duplicated on your server. If all of your images were located within the same directory locally, do the same on your server. Adding or using an existing Images folder on your server will not tell your HTML code where the image files have moved to.

3. Make sure you've FTP'd your image files in Binary mode to your server. The ASCII mode is just for HTML text files.

I hope this helps.
