I've just changed ISP and uploaded my web site:
http://home.swiftdsl.com.au/~astro/
In the "re-build diary" section the small pics don't show but the link is still there to the larger pic.
Both the small pic and large pic are in the "images" folder in my FTP thingamy jig.
How do I get the thumbnail pics to show??
Thanks

i use clag, or contact adhesive, but the screen gets crowded after a while
:P
PVA
it dries clear!
are the small thumbnail pics the same name as the larger ones? (i.e are they just the large images squished down?) i find it alot easier to actually
create the correct sized thumbnail, add *th to the end of the pictures name and link it to the larger picture, saves on download time and you can tell
when your links really are broken.
if youve just turned the big image into a thumbnail (i.e. squished it) then perhaps the thumbnails arent loading because they are timing out from
taking too long to download.
When in MS FrontPage I insert a picture, auto-thumbnail it, and the program renames the thumbnail "*_small.*"
Now that I look back through FrontPage I notice that the thumbnails aren't showing there either.
Should I just re insert all those pics?
Wouldn't hurt I suppose.
:cussing
Thanks Starbuggy
Don't use Frontpage! That's the best fix.
Try dreamweaver and handcoding...
Thanks Matt,
I'll look into them.

the best was to make a webpage is HTML and JAVA......if u can write this (like me) the dont use frontpage or dreamweaver.......though dream weaver can be handy to get frames right......as for your question......i take it you are using free webspace provided by your ISP?and that you had to copy the code into a new server? make sure all of your code for your links are fine ( in HTML they would look like this ........ <A HREF="location of large pic"><IMG SRC="location of thumbnail"></A> ...... if you find that your code is correct i think the best thing to do would be to ring up you ISP's technical support and ask them what the deal is :thumb
Please don't get confused between JavaScript and Java: they are completely different languages used for different things. Therefore it's
important to use the correct name for each.
To keep my stuff simple I only use Dreamweaver and dabble a little on the HTML coding by hand, but it is good how it shows you what the page is going
to look like as you do it.
http://www.ehholden.com.au was done by me using Dreamweaver and I'm
just a dumb panel beater. 
Fixed
I re-imbedded the pics, auto-thumbnailed them, uploaded them and ........
voila :o
Now I don't know if that's the way it's supposed to be but I now have the full sized pics siting in an "images"
folder, and the thumbnail *_small.* pics siting beside the html files.
:jesus
Thanks for the help guys and gals, had better go and look into those other programs now.
Hi
Move the thumbnails back into the image folder, FP will ask you if you want to change the hyperlinks to the thumbnails. Or you could leave them there,
it will make no difference, its just tidier to have them in one folder if you ever want to delete or update them. Next time you save images make sure
you select the image folder.
I use FP for my car club website, its very easy to use and does everthing I need it to do. Im a casual webmaster, prefer to use my spare time playing
with my car or doing other things.
