Navigation Bar Issue

I have an issue where where two of the buttons on a vertical naviagation bar
have the red x for no image when viewed on the web. They dislpay fine
locally.. Here's where it get's tricky. I don't publish the web to my remove
webhost (web and sql db server) because I have problems with extensions and
asp pages if I try to publish, so I use a different ftp program to ftp pages
up to the web. I have ftp'd up the structure file and all the pages related
and it still shows as a borken image link. Any ideas?

Be sure to publish the hidden _borders, _themes, and _derived folders along
with
everything else.

Tried that, no sucess. The same two pages (which are new pages added
recently) have the red x and the links work, but the button image (from the
theme) does not appear.

Take a look at the code and see if the image for the nav bar is pointing to
your local drive/PC. For example they may look like
this('c:/myweb/NavButtonImages/button8.gif) instead of
(onload="FP_preloadImgs(/*url*/'NavButtonImages/button8.gif). Without the
c:/myweb it won't matter if it is on the server or on your local PC the
images will display.

I hope I didn't butcher that explanation up too bad!!

Right click the image in the browser and select properties to see what image it is looking for
- check for Case or spaces in filenames

Aha, that was it. I didn't realize it created an image file for each button,
but that makes sense. Thanks so much!
