I am designing my web site. I have put all my images in a folder: Photos.<br />
But when I link to them from a htm page, the link fails (not found).<br />
<br />
Check the link properties here:<br />
<br />
Morse Home (<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://home.twcny.rr.com/suecortland/Test.htm">http://home.twcny.rr.com/suecortland/Test.htm</a><!-- m -->) <br />
<br />
It shows the 'MorseHome.jpg' image in the 'Photos' folder.<br />
<br />
However, if I put the image in the same folder as the htm page, it works. Like so:<br />
<br />
Morse Home (<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://home.twcny.rr.com/suecortland/Test2.htm">http://home.twcny.rr.com/suecortland/Test2.htm</a><!-- m -->) <br />
<br />
This link omits the 'Photos' and I put a copy of the image in the base folder.<br />
<br />
After spending much of a week on this, I am about ready to give up. Help?<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
I will be using many of the images more than once so I would prefer to have them all in 'Photos'; if I can get the links to work. The link '/Photos/MorseHome.jpg' doesn't seem to work either.<br />
<br />
Help?<!--content-->One tip. Make all names in lower case to avoid any sort of problem with case. Additionally never use spaces or odd punctuation in any names.<br />
<br />
href=http://www.htmlforums.com/archive/index.php/"../../Photos/MorseHome.jpg" is not correct.<br />
<br />
href=http://www.htmlforums.com/archive/index.php/"Photos/MorseHome.jpg" (with no / at the beginning) means the Photos folder is one level below the folder where the HTML page is.<br />
<br />

<br />
I think you need this last one! I guess you inherit the ../../ prefix from the structure on your hard drive, where your web site is probably in a lower-level folder than the level it is actually in on the site itself.<!--content-->This one is working:<br />

But your jumping back, to far......<br />

What editor are you using?<br />
To insert an image with Arachnophilia is easy.<br />
And the path is then ok.<br />
