Adding pics on frontpage website and posting on web

R

Rania

I am using Frontpage and Smart FTP. I am new to all this. I created a
folder on my desktop and another named Images w/in that 1st folder. I saved
my pics in the image folder. When I went to build my site, I noticed that
when I ftp that page all was successsful but the pics did not show up. Only
a box where the pic should be. My question is. How do I create a path or
what am I doing wrong?

You have to make sure in your html that the images are in the same directory
as the link it's pointing to. You might want to take the images out of the
images folder and move it to your main directory.

You need to move the images to a location "inside" your web.
If you look at your web in FrontPage using folder view, you should see an images folder.
This is where you would place the images.

You need to open a web / site in FP first via File Menu | Open Web / Site and then you must make
sure that all content for your site is either created within this currently open web / site via FP
or has been imported via FP into this currently open web / site before using it.

Quit using the lousy web interface and set up your newsgroups in a real
newsreader, such as Outlook Express.

I moved my images on the folder in my desktop, in my FP images website area
and mywebsite folder in my documents to be on the save side. Nothing would
help when I go to add a pic.

I even attatched the pics that I saved on FP in my image file from the folder
list area to the website and no luck
