Problems with images in firefox.

[hazzaboy69]

Hi as a follow up to my question of hosting earlier. I have now sorted that out and its being processed. I have quickly knocked up a site and it all works in IE but when I open it in firefox no images display, If I right click where the image should and click view image then it takes me to the image and runs it. This seems strange to me maybe someone can help.
I have heard reference to making the image tag absolute? dont know how to do that though.

Can you tell im new to all this HTMl malarkey?

url?

cut the "C:" bit out of the img src bits

It's incorrect even if you wanted to make it absolute. Leave it relative and keep images in a subdirectory of the directory in which the html page is and reference them img src="images/nameofimage.jpg". Also, remember that spaces need to be encoded as %20 - or "+" - so "name of image.jpg" should be referenced "named%20of%20image.jpg" or "name+of+image.jpg". Stick with %20 though, it's more likely to work over more browsers...

Thanks for that I can now see where I was going wrong putting the whole path in and also leaving out the %20 in the space.

upload it anyway and then clear the cache, u can click on the links and any that point to c:..... need editing

Better yet, rename the files without spaces...

sorry to high jack the thread, but this happens to me quite a lot. i use fire fox, open up a thread with picture, and often quite a few won't open, so i have to right click and ' view image' to see the picture.... any idea why this is? (its not just on here, other sites as well)
