Randomnly . . . the image tag in my code is not uploading. The only purpose of the page is to display a copy of a full page newspaper ad (downsized to 936 pixels wide), so the code is very simple:

<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
<title>Untitled Document</title>
</head>

<body>
<div align="center"><img src="new/images/ads/Annexation001.jpg" width="936" height="1512"></div>
</body>
</html>

That's the file on my local site.

But, when uploaded and viewed from the web, the image tag is totally not there!

<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
<title>Untitled Document</title>
</head>

<body>
<div align="center"></div>
</body>
</html>

Note the absence of image tag between the div tags.

I've put the image in a table, put it in a page that had other graphics, done gifs instead of jpgs; a dozen things I could think of but that image tag is never included in the uploaded file- other graphics are, but not that one. What the heck?

Anyone have any ideas? Am I missing something simple?

please help . . . :o

This will be something to do with some kind of adblocker on your machine. Post a link to your page and maybe I'll be able to see your image...

adblocker blocks a gif/jpg? What are the criteria it uses to do so?

Yes, I could see your image in IE and then after I disabled Adblock in Firefox, I could see it there too. I'm guessing that the problem is the word 'ads' in the path. If you think about it, it's a pretty good criterion for an adblocker - the image being in a directory called 'ads'.

oh that's absolutely hysterical! I knew it had to be something simple!

As I have never offered advertising on any of the sites I design, dealing with adblockers has never really occured to me. heeheehee- that's great :) That page has been driving me crazy for hours!

many, many thanks bonRouge :D
