Whenever i upload my website (everything, entire directory) my pictures on the website dont load, this happens on any server i upload to, i use microsoft office 2000, frontpage, on my comp i am able to view the pics for my page but when uploaded they are always X'ed out meaning they are not loading.

Any ideas on how to fix this?

Welcome to TWF SeV,

Can you give us the url of the site so we can have a look at the site/code and we may be able to spot what's going wrong?

SeV, make sure your images don't have paths like "file://..." and also make sure their case is correct (i.e. "File.GIF" is not the same as "file.gif").

I think Zollet has it, FP and Office usually adds the complete path on your computer in the code C:\\windows\stuff\foldername\subfolder\ ... just edit all your image tags and make sure the src="" part is just the image name if the .html file and image files are in the same folder, if the images have a seperate folder, one up, add the folder name infront of the image name: folder/image.gif

yeah umm, the thing is with FP is that they make directories which are totally useless, i still remember my friend this year (2002) in about 2 or 3 term handing in an HTML assignment and before he handed it in, it was 300k but when the copied over to the hand-in drive, it turn out to be 3.4mb, so just check that your site in your server is the right size, o and also, when the teacher copied the site to cd (he backsup students work) it had increased to 5.7mb Laughing out loud
