hi all!<br />
<br />
the newbie is back<br />
<br />
i was trying to load an image on my site<br />
here's the code<br />
<br />
<html><br />
<head><br />
<title>My Site : About me</title><br />
</head><br />
<body><br />
<b><p align="center">About me</p></b><br />
<img src=http://www.htmlforums.com/archive/index.php/"Me.jpg"> <br />
</body><br />
</html> <br />
<br />
the only problem is, that when i click on this particular page, all i see is the white box with a cross in it...and no image<br />
<br />
what am i doing wrong?<!--content-->the path and/or the name of your image is wrogn, check that the name is correct, caps will affect it, is the image in the same directory/folder as you html doc, is it in a folder like 'images' for example, then the source should be :<br />
img src=http://www.htmlforums.com/archive/index.php/"images/Me.jpg"><br />
<br />
if all else fails use the full path to the image:<br />
<br />
<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.yourdomain.com/folder/Me.jpg">http://www.yourdomain.com/folder/Me.jpg</a><!-- m --><br />
<br />
also make sure you have uploaded that image!!<br />
<!--content-->thanks, you were right, it wa sin the wrong directory...silly me<!--content-->hehe, a very common mistake many people make 
<!--content-->One technique to avoid silly typos in folder names and file names is to always make those names entirely in lower case. Yeah, it look odd to begin with, but it will make sense when you have a lot of pages, a lot of files, a lot of stored code snippets, and a lot of backup copies of things.<!--content-->
