Image Trouble

[ace84]

Is it possible to display an image that is located the users local machine???

For some reason it will not work for me...


<IMG SRC="file:///C:/Documents and Settings/Me/Desktop/test.gif">

No, it's not possible. It will only show on the pc that contains that image.

The image will not show unless embedded in a page in the file protocol.
You can't access local files from an http web page. It would be a security concern.

I know that, each image that will be shown will be from the current users computer.

I first want it to work on my computer, then I was going to rewrite it, so it works for anyone

not everyone will have the same file structure. I would look for a new solution. or have it to where the user can upload their photos and view them
