Image not showing up in Web Page preview

[Bruce Olson]

I'm designing a website using MicrosoftXP Word (blank webpage)
None of the images are showing up in Web Page preview.
I seem to have the same problem in ie7 when I try and view webpages created
by Word ... although they seem fine in Firefox.

Any help/info would be appreciated.

Hi Bruce,

If the images are not appearing in File=>Web Page Preview, check the settings in Tools=>Options=>General=>[Web Options]
and turn off the single file webpage choice and the use VML choice to see if that helps.

Although I didn't see the single file webpage choice I did set the use VLM
choice.

I suspect the problem may lie in the ie7 world, rather than the word world.

I'm at a loss, as these images can be seen by another computer running the
same version of ie7.

Hi Bruce,

Are you seeing a blank space where the pictures should be or... ???

How did you insert the pictures?

Have you restarted the PC?

If you're turned off the VML choice try setting the 'browser compatibility choice' to an older browser version. If you don't see
the pictures in
File=>Web page Preview, or if you save the web document to disk and then open it in Internet Explorer, check in Internet Explorer
Tools=>Internet Options=>Advanced and scroll down to see if 'Show Pictures' is checked.

This 'problem' only seems to happen when pages generated from Office
products are viewed. I don't have any problems viewing the pages on other
computers running the same version of IE7.
Have I somehow updated the 'rendering engine' (if there is something along
that line) on my computer. There is a website www.jrmahoney.com ,which was
generated by either word or frontpage a long time ago which will not display
correctly in my version of IE7 (Firefox ok). The same thing happens if I
create a web page using "insert a picture from file" in Wordxp.

Is ther any way to identify which .dll might be causing the problem??

Thanks

I found another posting from January 2007 from Matthew Crooks which appears
to be the same type of problem ... however I cannot find any resolution
posted for this. (Bob Buckland provided the only reply post I can find)

Does anyone know how to 'look at' this posting thread?

Hi Bruce,

That page, http://www.jrmahoney.com is using VML for the graphics, when it detects MS Office, but not when in FireFox. (In IE you
normally won't be able, for example, to right click on a picture and find 'save picture', other than the site visit counter.

It displays correctly for me in Firefox, IE7 and IE8-Beta 1 (although it can take awhile for the pictures to render if you have a
slower connection). If you choose render that http://www.jrmahoney.com URL at http://ipinfo.info/netrenderer/index.php does the
page look the same as how you see it in IE7? If not, can you save a post somewhere screenshots of how it looks in your IE7?

Can you use the VML editor at
http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex11/editor.htm ?

What about going the other direction, taking the JRMahoney page from IE and opening it in Word using IE's

File=>Edit with Microsoft Office Word

If you do that do the pictures appear in Word?

If the pictures pull into Word correctly, and you've checked for updated graphic card drivers for your PC and the Advanced settings
in IE for showing pictures and turning off Smart Image dithering, and you've installed the latest IE7 updates, it's possible that
your IE7 installation is damaged or the VML support may be disabled
