Hi
I have noticed that some of the pictures on my website aren't showing.. and I'm not sure why, I can't see any 'events' that would stop them from showing.
See this page http://www.ebabycentre.com/rockstarstroller.htmwhere the pictures at the top of the page have just disappeared, and the filled rectangle in the bottom left corner.
Any ideas why and how I can fix this?
Thanks. |

Well as far as I know, I didn't delete any files to cause them to go missing, so that's why I'm not sure what happened to the images...?
Most FTP clients are similar...Local Files in the Left pane...Remote Site in Right Pane.
I dont use Filzilla, but here's a link to a tutorial

5 Images missing
and the home page showed everything ok of course...
I figured that the only way there could be a problem was if the pics were on the server and not showing up...
------------------------------------
You did not ask but that never stopped me before. I think you need to put something at the top of every page like a header of some sort. The pages look like the baby's head is chopped off in 2 directions top and side. I would add the header and try to put the whole head. It seems to me to be too much of an abrupt [bam!!!] start at th top--I think the backroungd color is too light too..Don't hate me....

Thank you for your input into my website - no I don't hate you, lol, I welcome any opinions - criticism of course helps you build a better site! I'll take your comments on board and have a look into it.
With the baby image - looking half chopped, I actually bought that image as it is from iStockphoto - so unfortunately I can't buy the rest of the baby's head because that was the image, lol, but will look into other images with a FULL baby's head.
Thanks for your help.
I didn't know that you could put the website page URL to find an analysis on the page like you have done with www.websiteoptimisation.com - it may pay for me to check my other pages. |

I looked at your site last night and put 2 pages [the home page and the stroller page] in here to analyze

Your welcome...just try to have the same file hierarchy locally and on your site...makes things easier. |

jtarin - thank you, you are a genius!!
Another thing that I have learned from you.
One thing I don't understand though is why I have had to manually upload these files, when others have been okay?
Anyway it's all fixed now, thanks again. |

The pictures must be onsite for them to viewed in the browser..that is they must exist in your folders you have degnated them to be online as they are on your local machine...example: /files
You can either upload them using an FTP manager or using your websites filemanger...most have a facility for uploading files.
Remember...path...path...path...the browser needs to know where the picture is. |

I understand now that the images with the file name 'rockstarstroller...png' and the other images that aren't showing should be listed as a file on the file manager, as you mentioned I can't see them listed on the FileZilla that I have.
How do I go about uploading these files now?
In DHE picture properties (when I double left click the image) export options = Automatic (that's the default one that I just leave it at, should that be changed?)
Also in DHE picture properties, it is checked against 'when possible use original name' |

http://www.ebabycentre.com/cotbedding.htm I've got images that aren't showing, even in the body of the webpage...
Yet they're showing up fine when I do a page preview?

Assuming everything is as it should be and it is not working, I would,just for the hell of it, get a free hosting account here. I think approval is pretty immediate..
http://www.000webhost.com/
use their domain not yours when you set it up like http://ebabycentre.site88.com/net or whatever it is..
upload the site and see if the pics show up---Just to eliminate any hostgator issues---I like to eliminate anything out of my control before I spend too much time trying to fix anything that is not my problem..
It is a very nice free host to boot.
My neice is having a baby next month I will send her over soon---to the website I mean--not Australia |

Ah I see what you mean.
The image that I've picked up on every page of my website is from C:/Documents and Settings/ebabycentre/project/filename.jpg - I thought this was the filename that you were referring to, this is the file I select when putting in the image in DHTML on each page of my website.
The other that you mentioned "rockstarstroller....." is where, in picture properties, I've clicked on 'force this name' - I thought that would be a good idea to put in some keywords for search engines?
I'll have another play around with it to get the images up. |

Posted - 09 Aug 2008 : 11:18:39
As I do that here is what I see...as a filename:
"rockstarstrollerrockstarbabyinfinitystrollerinfinityrockstarbabypramrockstarpraminfinityrockstarstroller.png"
It would be prudent to rename your files with shorter names.It helps avoiding mistakes in creating links to them. |

While viewing your site online in your browser....Right-click on the image to check image properties and look for file location. Check your site files/folders to make sure the file exists in that location and is of the same name. |

Hi jtarin
If I double click left on the image, the filename seems to come up as the same on my index page for http://www.ebabycentre.comand that image on the homepage comes up fine? (I have the same images on all the pages, and some seem to be working while others are not).
If I right click on the image, I can't see any properties that indicate the file location? (That's the properties box)
