shadyDW Posted August 9, 2003 Posted August 9, 2003 Someone please help. I uploaded all my files for my webpage into my public_html folder. However all my tables and text are visible but my images fail to load upon viewing. Does anyone have any suggestions? Here's the link http://shadykrew.com There's a logo and a background tracer image that did not load. Mad!!! Quote
Head Guru Posted August 9, 2003 Posted August 9, 2003 http://shadykrew.com/index-logo.jpg Is there a jpg image in your public_html called index-logo.jpg? btw you should stay away from - in your file names. Just a thought, but I would name the file index_logo.jpg Check those two issues and report back Quote
shadyDW Posted August 9, 2003 Author Posted August 9, 2003 Ok, I renamed the images like you stated and my logo eventually loaded to my webpage but my background tracer image "tracingsrc="Index_image.jpg" didn't. If you load my webpage and view my source file you can see that the image is there but did not load on the page. ??? Quote
shadyDW Posted August 9, 2003 Author Posted August 9, 2003 Even though I upload my webpage with Dreamweaver, do I still need to upload the images individually to my public_html folder? Quote
Head Guru Posted August 9, 2003 Posted August 9, 2003 No your getting closer. The issue now that you have corrected the file name on the logo is you named your home page Index.html The home page can not start with a upper case I. Rename your home page to index.html all lower case! Reupload and it should work for you. Let us know. Quote
shadyDW Posted August 9, 2003 Author Posted August 9, 2003 I still can't seem to get that one tracing image to become viewable on the page. This is an image that I uploaded inside dreamweaver's document window. This particular image appears in the document window behind any content already in the window except for the background color. I'm really not sure if it has anything to do with the transparency/opacity features. I have noticed that even though it's viewable in the document window, it's not viewable in preview, neither on nor off line. Quote
shadyDW Posted August 9, 2003 Author Posted August 9, 2003 If you should check the following page http://shadykrew.com the image in question should be visible to the left of the page that seems to be blank. Quote
TCH-Don Posted August 9, 2003 Posted August 9, 2003 Its my understanding that dreamweavers tracing image is for assisting your design layout, and not for displaying an image on a web site. from Web Developer's Virtual Library! To see how Dreamweaver creates the tracing image, go to Code view and examine the code for your tag. You'll see several nonstandard attributes assigned (shown in bold): text="#000000" tracingsrc="images/myLayout.gif" tracingopacity="40"> The browser won't recognize these attributes, and so will ignore them. If you Preview in Browser with a tracing image in position, it won't show. But it will show in Dreamweaver Design view. Quote
TCH-Andy Posted August 9, 2003 Posted August 9, 2003 Spot on turtle Thumbs Up It is one of those features in dreamweaver that lets you display a mock up of your design, that you may have created in a graphics package, behind your page whilst you are creating it in dreamweaver. As you say, it will be ignored by a browser looking at your site. shadyDW. I would suggest you also decrease the size of your images, they take a while to download on a dial-up line. Andy Quote
