Somebody check dis out!

**touringlegend** · 28 Jul 2001, 00:45 (Ref:122808)

Could I ask a favour of someone to go and check to see if my sites pictures are working @ www.aiex57.care4free.net , and then reply here? The explanation's rather long so I won't go into it.

Thanks in advance to the person who does it!

Gerard · 28 Jul 2001, 01:09 (Ref:122817)

touringlegend, I can't see any pictures, just some numbers. (1 and 11).
Looking at your source code, I can't see any references to pictures in it.

**touringlegend** · 28 Jul 2001, 09:57 (Ref:122912)

It's the first ever time I've tried uploading pictures. OK I'll tell you how I done it.

First I uploaded all my pictures that I'm using, then I uploaded my Index.htm page.

Is there something I'm doing wrong? Should I upload all the pictures and the page I'm using from one folder at the same time?

quintin cloud · 30 Jul 2001, 10:35 (Ref:123703)

What

All I see is 1 - 11

where is interesting things to SEE

**touringlegend** · 30 Jul 2001, 18:52 (Ref:123924)

quintin, have you even read the thread!!!

that is the whole point, I can't get it to upload!!!

Kelvin · 30 Jul 2001, 21:45 (Ref:124028)

Can you write html?
The code is wrong!!

Kelvin

**touringlegend** · 30 Jul 2001, 22:00 (Ref:124041)

But that's not the page I'm trying to upload.

Kelvin, you should know how to upload a page?

Is the problem that I have only one page, and am not able to upload thumbnail views linking to bigger pictures.

I upload all the file at one time, including the large and small pictures, but my HomePage is not changing!!

And I can't write HTML, I don't think it would even help in this case!!

quintin cloud · 31 Jul 2001, 06:23 (Ref:124151)

what is the name of the file and the images that you are trying to upload ?

Eg.
***.htm or ***.html
***.jpg or ***.gif :confused:

And yes I have read the thread.

quintin cloud · 31 Jul 2001, 06:54 (Ref:124159)

I was looking at your code :

[b]Now this where a small problem can arise, having the following code as you have it will do the following when some one go's to your homepage :

1

1
1
1
1
1
1
1
1

11

1

Now a way around this problem and what you are possibly trying the do is have small images of cars ect. shown and if the browser clicks on the image, a larger version of the picture will be displayed :confused: Now if that is so this is what the code should look like:

<a href="image1.jpg"><img src="image1small.jpg"></a>and with a small note about the image 1
 

<a href="image2.jpg"><img src="image2small.jpg"></a>and with a small note about the image 2

<a href="image3.jpg"><img src="image3small.jpg"></a>and with a small note about the image 3

<a href="image4.jpg"><img src="image4small.jpg"></a>and with a small note about the image 4

<a href="image5.jpg"><img src="image5small.jpg"></a>and with a small note about the image 5

<a href="image6.jpg"><img src="image6small.jpg"></a>and with a small note about the image 6

<a href="image7.jpg"><img src="image7small.jpg"></a>and with a small note about the image7

Quinton, that must have taken you ages to write!

**touringlegend** · 31 Jul 2001, 10:24 (Ref:124237)

But thats not the page I'm trying to upload. It's another one, the file is called index.htm(l?) and here is the full code:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 3.2 //EN">

<HTML>
<A HREF="http://www.theaa.com"><IMG SRC="btcc_logo.gif" BORDER="0"></A>
<a href="http://www.tocatour.co.uk/ecp"><IMG SRC="logos.gif" border="0"></A>
<HEAD><TITLE>Knockhill BTCC Photos.</TITLE></HEAD>
<BODY><body bgcolor="#0000FF" background="Other/-jsm%20garage1.jpg">

<h2>Welcome to the site!</h2><H4>These pictures were taken on the 21st & 22nd July 2001 at Knockhill circuit in Fife, plus the background picture was taken by me and it is of a JSM Alfa 147.
 This was my first time using my camera(as I only bought it earlier this year), and I am just a beginner at any type of photography. <img src="ferrier alfa 4.jpg" width="176" height="104" I used a 35mm SLR(Single Lens Reflex) camera with a 35-70mm zoom lens. Not much of a zoom lens yes, but I am saving up my pennys for a larger lens. E-Mail me at astrafan@btcc.org with any questions you may have</H4>

<IMG SRC="allan honda(p).jpg" width="280" height="170">
<img src="beaumount honda(p)3.jpg" width="280" height="170">
<img src="bennett astra 1.jpg" width="280" height="170">

<img src="erdos lexus 4.jpg" width="280" height="170"></BODY>
</HTML>

Now what I need to know is do I upload the page only, or the page then all the photo files, because currently my page uploads in 3 seconds, so there must be sometjing wrong

Its now working

, but no pic's

**touringlegend** · 31 Jul 2001, 11:28 (Ref:124272)

That page with the yellow letters and grey background has always worked.

Do I need to upload the folder containing pictures, and the page, or do I just upload "index.htm"?

quintin cloud · 31 Jul 2001, 11:43 (Ref:124282)

You must upload the pictures aswell, the best rule of thumb when doing webpaging is when ever you include pictures, sounds , and others like links ect. you must upload it, if you do not, when one looks at your page will see open spots where images are sopose to be.

**touringlegend** · 17 Aug 2001, 12:37 (Ref:131654)

Ok I have now given up on pictures.
Do I have to upload them to a ...net/files section?
Anyway take a look at the points now: www.aiex57.care4free.net

that seems ok - do you want me to look into the problem with the pictures ? I am not a novice at this type of thing.......

**touringlegend** · 19 Aug 2001, 11:25 (Ref:132391)

Oh would you? Cheers!

What it is I do, I understand what I have to do is upload the whole file that includes pictures, the web page etc, etc. I did that then all I got was a blank page with the small boxes with the cross in it where the picture would have been.
Now I was wondering if I need to upload the pictures to lets say "www.aiex57.care4free.net/files" then when a picture appears on the "www.aiex57.care4free.net" I link it to one in the "www.aiex57.care4free.net/files/picture.jpg"

I'm just starting to wonder whether my web page is just that, a page, but they give you an example step by step how to use HTML and they tell you how to make a table and insert a picture in it. I'm not going to change the table now, but I'd love to see a picture to brighten the place up, it's a bit boring looking right now.

Thanks for the offer of help,

b...

b, b, but its working now!!!!!!!!!!! Yeeeha!
They've been there all along tucked away at http://www.aiex57.care4free.net/My%20Knockhill%20Photos

My Knockhill Photos was the name of the folder maybe it should be Index? Anyway check it out, but I have warned you they are big pictures just made smaller. It takes an eternity to load, if some pics don't come up the first time just click refresh. Now, I'll need to make those picttures into thumbnails....
