Dynamic Images not showing on server

[libbystow]

Hi
I have developed a database and uploaded it to the server. I am using a repeat
to show all records given a particular value. The database has a reference to
the image, ie images/adhesives/2033.jpg

I added a dynamic image to the region, and selected fields from the record set
rsAdhesives.
I can see the folowing field: text description, price and title. I can't
however see the images. I used the following to display the images
dynamically: <%=(rsAdhesives.Fields.Item("ProdImage").Value)% >


Do I have to prepend some of the path I used to make the database connection
into the image path on the database?

It show the image in Live Data mode but not if I connect to the internet and
browse my way there.

Hi Libby,

I'm assuming that your image field, in your database, holds the name of the
file? 2033.jpg?

If so, then you want to use this:

<img
src="images/adhesives/<%=(rsAdhesives.Fields.Item("ProdImage").Value)%>" >

Hope this helps.

Nath.

Hi Nat
Unfortunately that didn't work either. I think it's because the path has to be even more specific for this web hosting company . If you have any other ideas they are welcome.

Cheers

As long as you give the relative path to the folder your images are stored it,
it will work locally and on the live server, of course this assumes the images
are all uploaded..?

If you have not already, enter an Alt tag, so if the images are not loaded,
the browser will show the ALT tag and this might give you better idea of what
is going on.
Also check the properities of the Image tag on your live page to see the path
it is following for the images.

Hi Carl and Nat
My apologies the original answer from Nat was correct. I can see the images in
Mozilla Firefow and Mac IE but not in PC IE. This makes me think some coding
somewhere needs some attention to fix this bug.

Thanks for the help
Cheers:D

Strange one that Lib.
Not sure why it would work in one browser and not another...the data source
is the same and the image location is the same.

It's easy to delete out an important " or < or % somewhere along the line
though, particularly when you're staring at code all the time.

Hope you manage to sort it.
