Help needed - simple web page problem
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

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.

Don't use Frontpage! That's the best fix.
Try dreamweaver and handcoding...

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.
JavaScript can be used as a part of web pages to add interactivity.
Java is used for application development. Some applications developed in Java can be inserted into web pages as applets (which further adds to
the confusion).
For your images, double-check the file names and file paths in your HTML, and double-check that the images have been successfully uploaded. Try
typing the URL for an image directly into your browser's address bar - if you can see it, you know it's uploaded correctly.

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.

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.
