Joni4TA Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 Ok - what am I doing wrong? I created an html file webpage in Microsoft Office I named it "index.html" I separately uploaded 3 pictures in my upload space at Scouter.com But when I go to the webpage http://troops.scouter.com/ak/troop118/ nothing, picture wise, shows up except the dreaded "red X" Help?????

dan Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 Did you upload (transfer) the pictures to the website? You have to upload the web page and the pictures separately. When you upload the web page it will not upload the pictures for you, you will have to select each picture to upload. Here is one of the images the web page is looking for, v:imagedata src="index_files/image005.gif" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joni4TA Posted December 13, 2006 Author Share Posted December 13, 2006 actually, yes I did upload the pictures separately from the index.html file. They are all separately in the ftp space provided by scouter.com I am sure whatever I have done is easily corrected though... I wonder if I need to create a separate folder in the ftp space called "index_files" ? Also... I did not upload any photos called "image005.gif" so I wonder if that is the problem, maybe I have to rename every picture and THEN upload them again??? Gosh now I am confused!

Joni4TA Posted December 13, 2006 Author Share Posted December 13, 2006 oh yeah I see what you mean... this line - OK - the file name I uploaded was "AACouncilPatch" though.. so it should be fine no? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joni4TA Posted December 13, 2006 Author Share Posted December 13, 2006 LOL for whatever reason I can't even edit my own message above... because somehow the html stuff was left out... it should read - - this line - v:imagedata src="index_files/image005.gif" o:title="AACouncilPatch" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joni4TA Posted December 13, 2006 Author Share Posted December 13, 2006 Now I just found the "index_files" folder which was created on the desktop along with the index.html file. I uploaded every one of the items in that folder separately... now my ftp space looks like this... 118.JPG 4 KB JPEG Image 12/13/2006 AACouncilPatch.gif 31 KB GIF Image 12/13/2006 BSALogo.gif 9 KB GIF Image 12/13/2006 filelist.xml 292 B XML Document 12/13/2006 image001.jpg 3 KB JPEG Image 12/13/2006 image002.gif 9 KB GIF Image 12/13/2006 image003.gif 11 KB GIF Image 12/13/2006 image004.jpg 4 KB JPEG Image 12/13/2006 image005.gif 31 KB GIF Image 12/13/2006 index.html 13 KB HTML Document 12/13/2006 And STILL no photos showing up on that darn thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dan Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 I have not used word to create a website, so bear with me here. It sure looks like your HTML page is looking for the image index_files/image005.gif You uploaded it as AACouncilPatch.gif try remnaming that file on your PC to image005.gif and uploading it to the site again using the name image005.gif and see what happens.

dan Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 We are posting at the same time. But now I see a woodgrain background that was not there before. I am going have a look at the image for the background to see if I can get some clues. Have I ever told anyone how much I love to read HTML code!
