Displaying pictures from an alternate site

[Steve Easton]

I believe you need to use the absolute url
http://sitename.com/foldername/enl_photos<%=glpicstr1

This site is best viewed..................
...............................with a computer
Briefly... I have outgrown space on site 1. I now store large version of
pictures on site 2.

The following snippet of table code was working well when the pics were all
on same site....

----
<td width="25%" align="left" valign="top" rowspan="5">
<%glpicstr1 = "/photos/"& fp_rs("gl_spon") & "/" & fp_rs("gl_id") &
"_1.jpg" %>
<%
If (fso.FileExists(Server.MapPath(glpicstr1))) Then
%>
<a href="javascript:;" title="Click to see enlarged picture"
onClick=window.open('/display_picture.asp?src=/enl_photos<%=glpicstr1>','glp
ic1_window','toolbar=no,location=no,directories=no,status=no,menubar=no,scro
llbars=yes,resizable=yes,top=0,left=350,width=310,height=490');><img
border="0" src=<%=glpicstr1%>></a></b></td>
<%End If%>
</td>

I've made the following (logical to me) change to accomodate the new site in
the SRC reference...
------
<td width="25%" align="left" valign="top" rowspan="5">
<%glpicstr1 = "/photos/"& fp_rs("gl_spon") & "/" & fp_rs("gl_id") &
"_1.jpg" %>
<%
If (fso.FileExists(Server.MapPath(glpicstr1))) Then
%>
<a href="javascript:;" title="Click to see enlarged picture"
onClick=window.open('/display_picture.asp?src=http://www.secondsite.com/pgca
glassclub/enl_photos<%=glpicstr1%>','glpic1_window','toolbar=no,location=no,
directories=no,status=no,menubar=no,scrollbars=yes,resizable=yes,top=0,left=
350,width=310,height=490');><img border="0" src=<%=glpicstr1%>></a></b></td>
<%End If%>
</td>

All I get is a broekn link.

I AM using the full reference, as indicated in the second
example.

Any other help out there please?

You can't use the FileSystemObject on the remote server.

Also make sure your server allows referencing I know all my free storage web
spaces (i.e.: Lycos, geocities, etc.) won't allow referencing their sites.
