It's the darndest thing ... been using FP2000 and ftp client for sending
files for years. Lately the strangest thing has been happening: somewhere
between my computer and the web host's server some of the images get
"stripped" out of the page's html coding! I can see them locally, both
graphically and in html, but after ftp'ing the images and the files if I
check the View Source there is no reference to the images, and of course the
images are not visible. One or sometimes two or three images go just fine.
Then I try to add more images and they just seem to vanish.

The websites are relatively low-tech, no SWF files, no fancy programming.
Even the form is hosted off-site. Seriously low-tech. And the sites haven't
changed much except for added content (text/images) in about five years.

I've looked in the html code locally and there doesn't seem to be anything
odd (I know that sometimes MS likes to "tweak" the coding but that doesn't
seem to have happened here).

If anyone here can give a clue about what's going on -- or at least point me
in the right direction to figure out what's happening -- and how to repair it
I'd be eternally grateful. Following are some specs about our system:

Webhost: One @ GoDaddy and the other @ Cedant (both claim they have no idea
what the problem is, that it's not at their end)
Our O/S: WIN2000
FTP client: FTP Commander -- been using this one for about two years and
still use it successfully for other websites; recently installed SmartFTP to
see if it made a difference (it didn't)
Browsers: IE6.x, FireFox
Security: Avenge and Norton
Connection: Cable

Any other information required pls advise. TIA many times over to anyone who
can help.

FTP does not strip content from Html files
Post a URL to a page w/ an image tag to look for in it
- it is possible your AV program is stripping them as part of its content blocking
(especially if it thinks the images are ads)

Kill Norton.

Norton, and a few other security utilities, will remove graphics from
web pages if the utility considers the graphic to be a risk or an
advertisement.
If the graphic's filename, or path to the graphic, contains any of the
following within it, the graphic will be removed:
banner, ad, advert, advertisement - and there are other variations on
that theme.
To ensure all your users see the graphics, rename any files and
folders to avoid the above.
