A problem with puting a .gif file on the web

[Argon88]

I have a doodle web page http://www.volvobylnb.com/Justin_Home.htm I use it as a sounding bord is I atempt to learn more about web design. My problem is the .gif isn't showing. (it's the spinny thingy) What's going on?



I'm using Microsft Frontpage and I animated it with Jasc Animation Shop.

This is what I think your code should be.

"http://www.volvobylnb.com/images/Justin%20web%20spinny.gif"

http://www.volvobylnb.com/images/Jus...b%20spinny.gif

Not this:

"http://www.volvobylnb.com/images/justin%20web%20spinny.gif"

It would appear that the CAPITAL "J" in justin is your problem.

EDIT: I forgot to change "j" to "J."

I don't get it...

Your image links are case sensitive.

Sorry for the "crappy" post. Not awake yet.

Here's a site for HTML help.

I figured it out when I went into your image directory.

Edit: See my first post I fixed it again.

So I need to change the .gif file name to a lower case name?



Don't worry about your "crappy" post, I'm just a noob at this.

The file name in your image link has to "exactly" the same the file name as you have saved on the web.

For example, your Porche pictures have a capital "P" while your dodgecaravan pictures are in lower case.

If you use a lower case "p" the Porche pictures are not going to show and conversley if you capitalize "D"odgecaravan it wont show.

For example on my site I have this gif:

"http://members.cox.net/usa-cleaners/page2/lol04.gif"

http://members.cox.net/usa-cleaners/page2/lol04.gif

If I capitalize the first "L" in lol04.gif it won't show;

"http://members.cox.net/usa-cleaners/page2/Lol04.gif"

http://members.cox.net/usa-cleaners/page2/Lol04.gif

The file name in your image link has to be identical to how it was saved.

HTH,

Bill

you need to go into Frontpage into HTML edit mode, and change the line that says <img src="http://www.volvobylnb.com/images/justin%20web%20spinny.gif"> to <img src="http://www.volvobylnb.com/images/Justin%20web%20spinny.gif">
