Hi all,<br />

Lisa<!--content-->Which pics exactly? The all look fine to me.<!--content-->yeah because they all work just fine.<br />
<br />
you might be experiencing some caching problems. I would delete everything in your temporary internet files and restart you computer. my guess is they will start working.<!--content-->the pictures are under 'products', 'single head welders'<!--content-->Unless that's the problem... there is not 'single head welders' on this page <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.sparksdirect.com/products.htm">http://www.sparksdirect.com/products.htm</a><!-- m --><br />
<br />
And why is there such a huge gap between your 3rd and 4th row of images on that pages (and between 4th and 5th,....)?!?<!--content-->sorry, i mean under 'refurbished machinery'<!--content-->She meant Refurbished Machinery > Single Head Welders:<br />

Your broken images seem to be because the images are not uploaded to the correct folder (<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.sparksdirect.com/site/lib/products/singlewelders/">http://www.sparksdirect.com/site/lib/pr ... lewelders/</a><!-- m --> ). If you upload your imagesinto that directory, they should show up.<br />
I hope this helps.<!--content-->NOW I FEEL STUPID...THANKS<!--content-->u-humm....

If I'm on the 'Products' page and click on 'Refurbished Machinery' I get a # after your link in the location bar?!?!<br />

Add type="text/javascript" to every <script> tag.<br />
<br />
<br />
Add a type="text/css" attribute to every <style> tag.<br />
<br />
<br />
Remember to "Quote" all attributes, especially all "#FFFFFF" colors, all URLs, all "50%" sizes, and any other attribute value that contains anything other than a simple "A" to "Z" or "0" to "9" value. In HTML 4.01 it is recommended to quote all attribute values.<br />
<br />
<br />
Add alt="some text" to every <img > tag, the text reflecting what is in the dispayed image. On unimportant images, like spacer elements, a minimum of alt="" is fine. For bullet-point images, alt="*" is often used. Search engines do index the alt text. The alt attribute is a required element.<br />
<br />
<br />
Fix these and your menu, and you're all set. Don't forget to check all of the other pages of the site as well.<!--content-->come on guys, she said she didn't make the site. don't make it harder on her than needs be. in time she will get all of the errors, if that is her job now. but if she is just updating it for this session than she probably doesn't care if the site has errors or not
