Rob,
Yes, I used Microsoft Image Composer to save the bmps as jpgs.
I guess I'm at a loss as to how the images cannot be on the web. When I use
FrontPage to view "remote web site" I can see the files. If I delete them
from my PC and republish, FrontPage asks me if I'm sure I want to delete them
from the destination server.
Thanks for the tip on the wordart - I didn't realize that would only work in
IE.
:
Actually the image /images/frank1.jpg does not existing in your web.
How did you convert bmp to jpg...with an image editor right?
In addition you're using WordArt which uses VML and will only appear correctly in IE browsers, other browsers will convert them to low level gifs or worse.
Murray,
I converted the bmps to jpgs but it did not change the result. Also, when I
view the website in Frontpage, I do show those files resident on the server.
In fact, when I deleted the bmps and republished, I got a message telling me
that the bmp files existed on the destination server but not on the source
(words to that effect anyway) and did I want to delete them. So it would seem
that my image files are on the server.
Puzzling, isn't it?
Thanks for taking the time to look into this!
:
First of all, you must never use BMP images on the web -
images[1].src = "images/michelle.bmp";
They are monstrously huge in file weight, and are not supported by any
browser.
Second, I can find no indication that any of your images have been uploaded
to the images folder. I believe that those two observations circumscribe
the root of your problem! 8)

Kevin,
I am having the same problem...
I have a page on a website on which I've put scripting code to display
a
different picture each time the page is loaded. It works perfectly in
FrontPage preview; however, when published, just as Krisie-D describes,
I
simply get a transparent box with a small red "X" in it. If I
right-click
the
box and select properties, the URL displayed correctly points to the
image
file. When I refresh the page, the address in properties does in fact
change,
so the randomization part of the code is obviously working, but the
actual
picture will not display.
Any suggestions you, or anyone reading this post, can offer will be
greatly
appreciated. Thank you!
:
Okay, first, you need to distinguish between a web page and a web
site. A
web page is no more a web site than a page in a book is a book. It is
important to make this distinction in order to work effectively with
web
pages and web sites.
Next, we need to know if indeed you created a web page or a web site.
You
can use FrontPage to create stand-alone web pages that are either
server-based or file-based (just an HTML document on your local file
system), or web sites (an integrated collection of files and folders,
emphasize INTEGRATED).
Also, what do you mean by "uploaded?" Did you publish a web site, or
did
you
"upload" a page to the web server individually somehow?
All of this is germaine to the question of what you did wrong. An HTML
document is pure text. Images are not embedded in an HTML document.
Instead,
a URL of the image's location is stored in the HTML document, and the
browser fetches it. Depending on what you were working on (web iste or
web
page), how you inserted the images into the document (did you import
them
into your web first?), and how you "uploaded," you may have done any
of
several things wrong.
