natimage Posted January 31, 2004 Posted January 31, 2004 (edited) With my image paths set to something like: >../images/photo.jpg they are displayed in both Mozilla and Internet stupid Explorer 6, but I cannot view pages correctly using phpDev. With my image paths set to: >images/photo.jpg they are displayed in Mozilla and I can preview accurately in phpDev, but Internet stupid Explorer 6 shows nothing but boxes with red x's in them. Can anyone shed some light on this for me? Link is in my signature...Natural Images Photography. IE6 also throws this big gap on the right hand side between the date and my google search function. I can't figure that out either...it displays correctly in Mozilla. Edited January 31, 2004 by natimage Quote
borfast Posted January 31, 2004 Posted January 31, 2004 (edited) Tracy, where exactly does that problem (missing images) happen? I visited your site with both Mozilla and IE6 and the only place I found some missing images was inside the galleries - but they're missing in both browsers, not just in IE6. I took a peek at the source code and the problem is that you're missing the leading / on the images paths. For instance, the navbar images: you're referring to them using the URL "navbar/Logo1.jpg". Since the page you're viewing is in http://www.naturalimagesweb.com/gallery/ , that path will tell the browser to look for the "Logo1.jpg" image at http://www.naturalimagesweb.com/gallery/navbar/Logo1.jpg , which doesn't exist. If you use "/navbar/Logo1.jpg" instead of just "navbar/Logo1.jpg", it would direct the browser to http://www.naturalimagesweb.com/navbar/Logo1.jpg and it will work fine. Still, I'm not sure if this is what you were referring to. Is it? Edited January 31, 2004 by TCH-Raul Quote
natimage Posted January 31, 2004 Author Posted January 31, 2004 Thanks for checking it out, Raul. I think my browser must have been having some sort of issue last night! I got IE to load everything this morning! I took a peek at the source code and the problem is that you're missing the leading / on the images paths. For instance, the navbar images: you're referring to them using the URL "navbar/Logo1.jpg". Since the page you're viewing is in http://www.naturalimagesweb.com/gallery/ , that path will tell the browser to look for the "Logo1.jpg" image at http://www.naturalimagesweb.com/gallery/navbar/Logo1.jpg , which doesn't exist. This would seem to be true, however, when I right click on any of my logo or navbar images and view the properties, the correct path is listed. I will keep that in mind, though, if I have any further problems. I don't know what was going on with it last night. Thanks again for taking a look! Quote
TCH-Thomas Posted January 31, 2004 Posted January 31, 2004 I visited your site with both Mozilla and IE6 Raul is using IE? Quote
borfast Posted January 31, 2004 Posted January 31, 2004 lol No, I'm not using IE. I mean, it's not my default browser but I do have it installed to check if my clients' web sites work well on it. One thing is my personal web site, in which I try to tell people that (IMHO) they could use a better browser than IE. But a client's site is a different thing. I can't risk having someone pay me to make a web site for them and not having it work well on IE, so yes, I do have it installed here on Linux so I can test the web sites I make Tracy, about the images paths, are you sure those are correct? I just tried it again and it still doesn't work. And if I right-click the images, select Properties and copy/paste the image URL into the browser, I get a "404 Not Found" error message By the way, I can't access the Waterscapes, Eagles, Sunsets, Rodeos, Rainbows and Still-Life galleries - I also get a 404 Not Found error for those pages.

I was on a different page than you, and not deep enough into my site!! I just need to figure out how to get phpDev to be OK with this!! By the way, I can't access the Waterscapes, Eagles, Sunsets, Rodeos, Rainbows and Still-Life galleries - I also get a 404 Not Found error for those pages. ...That's because I haven't finished them yet!!! Thanks, again. Sorry I was on a different page...literally!! Quote
darkroomesecapee Posted March 24, 2004 Posted March 24, 2004 Hi, I do not have a site, I found this by a searh on google. I have had a reoccuring problem with images not showing. on three different PCs and three different OS. I thought that it would not happen with a branded windows notebook. But it has. Hence the search! I checked the same images that I could not see on netscape;ie6 and foxfire. Only foxfire did show the images! Just thought I'd share. Quote
