Frontpage will sometimes place local paths to your image. Check the paths to the images and make sure they are not pointing to your local hard drive.

<img border="0" src="Documents%20and%20Settings/Owner/My%20Documents/23/chaselogo.jpg" width="195" height="76" align="center">

Your image source is pointing to your local hard drive. You need to change the image source to point to the website URL like so:


<img border="0" src="chaselogo.jpg" width="195" height="76" align="center">

yup.. sjlplat had pointed it out right.
and also i notice that the normal href link is also using local drive path. you need to change the path for the IMG and also the HREF

to sjlplat-do i have to go in a change ever line with image border? or are there a way for frontpage to do the changes.

To Charlesgan - Can you give me an exsample? or are there a way to let frontpage to do it.

As you can see i'm not good at writing HTML

Thanks to everone for there response

I don't use Frontpage but if it's anything like nVu you should save your page before you establish any links (or images), then indicate as you work with an image that it is to be a 'relative' connection to the image. (or better yet, put your images in a known directory on the server first, then type in an absolute reference to the already uploaded image).

hi snachstick. basically, you need to 'define site' in the frontpage, and frontpage will auto fix those path issue.


<a href="Documents%20and%20Settings/Owner/My%20Documents/My%20Webs/myweb6/RETRACTABLE%20FORTFOLIO.htm">RETRACTABLE</a>

which is refering to local drive. you will need to change it to something like this...


<a href="RETRACTABLE%20FORTFOLIO.htm">RETRACTABLE</a>

I'm pretty rusty with Frontpage -- The version I used to work with was 98. I believe nerdykit is correct: You must use relative paths as you create the website. Otherwise, the editor assumes you want absolute paths. You will have to replace all the paths in your site manually.

I believe defining a site is a Dreamweaver feature. I'm not aware of anything like that in Frontpage, but I'm not familiar with the newer versions.
