digisummo Posted August 17, 2003 Posted August 17, 2003 I am uploading a website to a secure area and some of my links do not work. I was told that it is because someone created the site in Front page and secure server doesn't allow them so I need to write the links in binary code for the cgi scripts to work. Can someone help me figure this out? Thanks. Quote
Lianna Posted August 17, 2003 Posted August 17, 2003 Maybe this will give you some insight. I looked at the properties for the *red-x-of-death* missing image at the top left of your page and find the path of: >https://www.readysecure3.com/images/steel_small.gif and the path of the page itself is: >https://www.readysecure3.com/users/steelbuilt-inccom/binprices.cgi Do you see it? Now check here: >https://www.readysecure3.com/users/steelbuilt-inccom/images/steel_small.gif Ah, there's that graphic! Modify the paths to include the /users/steelbuilt-inccom/ portion and you should be good. Hope that helps a bit. Quote
digisummo Posted August 18, 2003 Author Posted August 18, 2003 O.k>, I see what you mean . Thanks I will try it. Thumbs Up Quote
digisummo Posted August 18, 2003 Author Posted August 18, 2003 I think I am changing the link then I upload it to the domain but I don't see it anywhere on the page. This is what it reads in the Src >https://www.readysecure3.com/users/steelbuilt-inccom/images/steel_small.gif but when I check the properties it reads that the code leaves out the users part. Quote
Lianna Posted August 18, 2003 Posted August 18, 2003 Yep, it appears to still be dropping the /users/steelbuilt-inccom/ part out of the path.... I'm guessing that's Frontpage A chop of your code looks like this: ><script language="javascript"> Image1 = new Image(350,47) Image1.src = "/images/products_small.gif" Image2 = new Image(350,47) Image2.src = "/images/products_bins.gif" Just a hunch, but try this, put two periods before the /images directory in that path so it looks like: ><script language="javascript"> Image1 = new Image(350,47) Image1.src = "../images/products_small.gif" Image2 = new Image(350,47) Image2.src = "../images/products_bins.gif" I don't know how to do that in Frontpage, since I don't use it, but maybe somebody else can chip in with a trick. The two dots force the path to be relative to root rather than relative to the active page's directory. Quote
digisummo Posted August 18, 2003 Author Posted August 18, 2003 No it is still dropping that part of the script. Yes it is Frontpage- I didn't make the site but just have to load it to secure area and make links work. i have never used Frontpage. Quote
Lianna Posted August 18, 2003 Posted August 18, 2003 I'm going to move this topic over to the Frontpage forum in hopes of capturing the attention of a Frontpage user that may have some insight... Quote
digisummo Posted August 18, 2003 Author Posted August 18, 2003 O.k., thanks for all of you help. Quote
Lianna Posted August 19, 2003 Posted August 19, 2003 <Bump> Any frontpage users out there that can enlighten us? Surely someone somewhere has images on a secure page as published by frontpage. Quote
