Default Publishing drops graphics pointers


Ken,

I think this is your situation:

Your .html pages are hosted up on your ISP's web space and
graphics/picture refrences (.jpg's) are on YOUR PC.

If your .jpg's are stored locally on your machine and
you're running web services (I think you should be), the
<img src=> tag needs to contain the http:// link back to
your web server where the images are being stored.

The html pages, stored up on your isp's webspace, don't
know what or where (c:\documents &
setting\username\mywebs\images\filename.jpg) is because
they're on YOUR pc.

If I'm WAY off, forgive me. I'm speaking to what it is
that I do. The only thing my web server is doing is
serving up the pictures for the sites I've got stored up
on my ISP's web server. The URL that the web surfer
enters isn't pointing back to me, only the graphics images
that are on the pages.

If this is what you're trying to do then you're going to
have to change the <img src=> tags to point back to your
machine.

ie; <img src="http://yourdomain.com/images/filename.jpg"
