Image-related problems

See these posts for image-related problems. Remember the previous forums - there is a wealth of information there - do make an effort to read there!

Remember when you read in other forums not to post questions there but to come to back here! Rather open a seperate window for the previous forums.

Dr. Mac,
I do have a website as per ass 1 requirements. I am not sure how to ensure that the photo is "linked" to the page.
Then secondly is how to test the page. If I send it via e-mail and try to open the page the photo is missing??
Any person that can please assist.

Good day Neels

Here is an sample of how your image can be linked:

Language: HTML
<html> <body> <p> <img src="neels.png" alt="My Photo"/> </p> </body> </html>


Place your photo named neels.png in the same folder as your index.html when uploading to your root directory.
Ensure not to use Caps, and avoid spaces in image names.
I sent my url to my friend to check, or you can check it on your phone's browser once uploaded via FTP.
I prefer to type the url myself instead of sending the link "good practice for browsing especially when you use online banking sites, very bad idea to click on links sent to you"
Hope this helps you.smile

Regards,
Riaan

Image files: <img src="hubble.jpg" width="945" height="412" border="0" align="middle" alt="hubble">
is the above correct? can you do it like this:
<img src="C:\HTML\jax\hubble.jpg"width="945" height="412" border="0" align="middle" alt="hubble">

And why or why not?

A page that is on a web server must refer to a picture that is also on the server. When the image is on your PC's hard drive (Csmiling smiley the server cannot ge to it because.
When the page is on your PC, you can refer to it like that but web sites are not developed for your PC.

When you use editors to insert images for you, some add the C:-part to it and you will have to remove it manually when uploading to the server.

I am trying to complete the Assignment 1. My photo is not showing. I have gone through current and previous posts and can't seem to figure out what I have done wrong!

When I open my web page and view source, this is what it shows:

1.77522354 Justine Hoggan
2.<p>
3.<img src="justine.jpg width="480" height="640" border="0" align="middle" alt="justine">

I am sure my image is loaded to correctly as it is in the root folder/directory of the FTP server.

Can anyone help me and advise what i should do differently?

My web address is: http://justine.freeoda.com/

Thanks to justine's mistake i finally got my site right
sent it through and hope it also doesn't get spammed like some of the other students have said

My web address is farhaad.freeoda.com

Anyway , if you still haven't got yours right the only problem is the "(inverted comma) missing at the end of justine.jpg

Hope that sort's it out

Wow whoever that is is beautiful...lol
that's proof it is working Justine
Sometimes things just take a little longer to load the 1st the time....that's the only thing i could think of because of the experience i had when 1st registering my site.

I'm no expert...just a beginner.....so like they say in the tutorial.....help each other as far as possible

Khuliso i'm not a 100% sure of what your situation is ....like i say i'm just a beginner too
i had a problem with understanding the index naming also

But create a folder,i named mine index,.....then put the image and index file into the index folder , then upload the image and index file on free hosting
See if it works........if it doesn't , then i wouldn't really know what to say

My problem was that there was double inverted commas instead of 1 in the code. I had height="640"" instead of height="640". It took a while to see it but i got it right in the end. Thanks

This is the problem... there could be 100's of reasons and not seeing your code it is impossible to tell what is wrong. Which is why you need to work through the previous forums until you find a solution.
