I have a menu system (that someone on this forum helped me with awhile ago..thx). It is code that was built by Dreamweaver 4.0 then changed for my purposes.
menu code here (http://www.livethislife.net/ltl/downloads/mm_menu.js)
my problem is that one most machines the arrows on the menu (used to show that a submenu exists) work fine...but on SOME machines the arrows just plain don't show up (I get the red X).
by "machine" I mean servers. A server in Missouri displays them fine on clients and on itself. A server in New York displays red x's on clients and itself. (even on a client that displays fine when connected to the Missouri server through VPN).
The images are in the proper locations...any ideas what would cause this?

The red "X" usually means that the images aren't stored where the web page was looking for them. If that is not the case, then possibly the image type is incompatible with that particular server and it delivered the wrong MIME information to the browser.

the images are being stored in the proper place...and it's a Windows 2000 Server running IIS5 and the images are .gif format

Does the directory with the images in it allow file browsing? Maybe you don't have permission.
