Uploaded images on ftp but they do not appear

[krispet]

Hi,

I have designed a website for myself...my first ever...

I wrote it in Text Wrangler in html & css. All of my links and images worked when I was testing it.


I just uploaded to my server using Fetch. When I opened it on my computer in Safari everything was fine...then I had a friend on a different computer open it and none of the images opened. I then tried to open it on Mozilla and none of the images opened there either.....

I uploaded them in automatic mode (so fetch uploaded them in binary mode).

All of the links in the site work, so the paths for them are written correctly. It is just the images that do not appear. Can you please help!!!

what have you typed in the img src?

Would you mind posting a link to your site?

Check the SRC on the image tag. Depending on what application was used developing the website, the SRC link could have been set to an absolute link (file:///C:/yoursite/images/image.gif) instead of a relative link (images/image.gif). Both will work for you, but only for you and not everyone else visiting the site becasue the don't have the images physically stored on their computers.

This happened to a friend of mine updating her site. She could see the miages online, but I couldn't. They were referencing to file:///C:/...

you should use img table and got its filepath.
and i think perhaps you forgot to specity the size of your image.

Sometimes I also get that.
Then i figure out that -
1) you must wait a wile before it will reflect and
2) you must press "refresh" on the toolbar, because the computer collect "cookies" and when you open a website that was visit before, the computer uses the "old" cookie to open it. so when you open your website again, just press refresh. it sometimes help.

Also make sure you have saved the images in RGB mode.

This happened to me once, when I'd used width and height attributes in the img tag itself. Not sure why at all, but deleting the tags, and using css solved it.

Try opening your website from any other computer and if you can't make the images open even in one computer then Like Drallab Suggested the paths must be the issue.
