Hi again Guy.
I took the liberty of having a look at the source code of your webpage. I copied the image tag below from your code to illustrate the point:
<img id='Picture4' name='Picture4' src='files/website_picture4.jpg' border='0' width='355' height='369'></img>
If you take a close look at the underlined section of code, you can see that the "src" parameter for the image tag for 'picture4' is looking in a folder called "files" in the same folder where your html document resides. If that folder is not there, or the file "website_picture4.jpg" is not in that folder, then you will get the X in place of the image.
There are a couple of things you can do about that. You can go through and change all the src paths in your html document, or you can upload the "files" folder with all of its contents into the same folder of your webserver where your html document lives.
Your html document generated with Dynamic HTML Editor also has a style sheet "css" file that also resides in the "files" folder, as well as the javascripts and a small gif file. For your page to display and work properly, all those files will be needed. My advice is to FTP the files folder into the same webserver folder as your html document. If you've already done that, and you're still getting these results, then I'm afraid that I can't offer any more help.
Perhaps someone else on the list has more ideas.
Hope this helps. Good luck.
Joe

I had the same delay, you must open the source html of the page and where it has the location of the picture it will say the file you had it in on your computer, change that so its just the picture name, heres an example
"file/file/picture.gif" change to just "picture.gif"
its really simple but time consuming. |

Hi again Guy.
Based on your earlier post (re: Xs appearing where images are supposed to be in your html document) your image files are not where the "src=" element of the image tag says they should be. Dynamic HTML Editor generated pages will, by default create links to your images in a "files" folder which includes all your image files, javascripts, and other things that Dynamic HTML Editor-generated html documents need. Your page cannot find that folder - and the image files it contains.
This will be easy enough for you to fix by using an FTP program to upload your html documents, as well as the "files" folder created by Dynamic HTML Editor.
I looked into the angelfire hosting program - specifically the upload of your documents via FTP (file transfer prototcol).
Angelfire - like many free hosting programs have a build-in web page builder and that is their preferred method for creating content for the site you have hosted on their server. However, Angelfire does permit FTP from your own program so you can upload html documents and other content created in other ways.
I have included the following link to Angelfire's FTP instructions. They are fairly straightforward - but reply here if you have trouble and we'll see if we can help further.

Also, here is the lilnk of my favorite FTP program. It is simple, easy to use, and FREE :) Its called i.FPT by Memecode. http://www.memecode.com
Hope this helps. Good luck!

Hi Guy.
Are you using an FTP program to upload your completed HTML documents and the photos?
Some webhosts (I'm not sure about Angelfire) do not grant normal FTP access to your webspace. You have to use their server-based upload programs to tansfer documents and images individually.
I don't know if that it your problem, but it seems like a good place to start.
Hope this helps. Good luck :)
