Images not displaying

G

Guest

Hello

I have tried putting a simple jpg onto a page. I did this by selecting Image
from the tool box. Then in the properties I selected Image Url and typed in
"App_Data/image.jpg"

It shows when I am looking at it in design, but not when I publish it, just
shows the little box like it cannot find the image.

Can anyone help please?

Thanks
James

So if you create a hard-coded one-line HTML page with this reference, the
image displays?

And App_Data is a subdir under the location of the calling page?

c:\inetpub\wwwroot\vdir\somedir\mypage.htm

c:\inetpub\wwwroot\vdir\somedir\app_data\image.jpg

I meant view the resultant HTML in the browser. Right click on the page in
IE, and choose View Source

And you better be sure of the exact dir...because there inlies your problem!

Here is test code. Does this work in test.htm?

<html>
<body>
<IMG src="app_data\image.jpg">
</body>
</html>

or

<html>
<body>
<IMG src="\app_data\image.jpg">
</body>
</html>

Hi

Yeah I did view the source and the source said "App_Data/image.jpg"

The first option worked, the second with the first \ does not work.

Hi

Just noticed something odd, When I double click on the file in the FTP
folder it loads the htm file up and it displays the image fine. But, when I
type in the url to the test.htm in the address bar, it does not.

What does that mean? I have turned pretty much every security i can off.

App_Data can't contain images

Hi,

I had the same problem and found on an other forum that images arn't allowed to be located in App_Data, create a new folder i.e. images and place your images there and everything should hopefully work fine.
