MS Office Forum / Publisher / Web Design / February 2006images not showing up in explorer 6
Made a small 3 page web site with Publisher, www.sorochan.com and the images show fine in firefox but only get the red x in explorer. Opening the site locally off my computer it displays the images in explorer. I noticed if I enter my site at validator.w3.org I get all sorts of errors . The first one saying "This page is not Valid (no Doctype found)!" which sounds sort of serious. I'm not sure if that is related or not. Searched this forum and found other people with the same or similar problems but no real soulutions. Any ideas? Thanks. inline... > Made a small 3 page web site with Publisher, www.sorochan.com and the images > show fine in firefox but only get the red x in explorer. if you look in the index_files directory you will find multiple copies/versions of each image. Which image file gets loaded is dependent on the browser used, meaning different browsers use different image files. Which means your statement is comparing kiwis to grapes. > Opening the site > locally off my computer it displays the images in explorer. comparing your local environment to the web server, um, let's say candy corn to pizza. > I noticed if I > enter my site at validator.w3.org I get all sorts of errors .

Order a pizza instead ;-) > Searched this forum and > found other people with the same or similar problems but no real soulutions. > Any ideas? Thanks. tell your web host support that your account has a directory permissions problem. I look at the source code of your web page using IE and find an image file it's loading - for example - image741.jpg, and I type that URL to access it directly - http://www.sorochan.com/index_files/image741.jpg - and the result is a 403 error. Which your web host is nice enough (NOT!) to inform you of if you can read at supersonic speeds.  SignatureDavid Bartosik - [MSFT MVP] http://www.davidbartosik.com Hotlinking is not allowed at my host which is what you tried to do by accessing a image directly, http://www.sorochan.com/index_files/image741.jpg Could that be the problem? > Hotlinking is not allowed at my host which is what you tried to do by > accessing a image directly, http://www.sorochan.com/index_files/image741.jpg > Could that be the problem? > Checking again I can access this file http://www.sorochan.com/index_files/image741.jpg with Firefox but not with Explorer > > Hotlinking is not allowed at my host which is what you tried to do by > > accessing a image directly, http://www.sorochan.com/index_files/image741.jpg > > Could that be the problem? > > Checking again I can access this file http://www.sorochan.com/index_files/image741.jpg with Firefox but not with Explorer Checked again, can't access with Firefox now, only the first time I tried it. Very strange. I think it's a server side host issue. Do you have a free web space or other hosting source you can use temporarily? I'd recommend loading to another host and see if you can repro the issue.

Very strange. I uploaded it somewhere else and it works fine so I guess it is a server problem. Thanks for the help. This was posted in my web hosts help forum "We certainly understand that it could be very annoying not to see the images on your web site hosted with us. Yet the simple resolution is to turn off the firewall on you computer! The problem is caused by the hotlinking protection system we have applied for all images after the numerous traffic abuses! Unfortunately the computer firewalls are blocking some of the parameters our system is seeking to validate the open files are really placed on a web page hosted with us." Turning off my firewall doesn't make any difference, not much of a solution regardless. Is there a way to add code and change the html code slightly at my web site so that images will show in explorer? Or do I have to start from scratch? Thanks Perhaps go to Tools > Options > Web Options and uncheck Organize supporting files in a folder. It probably won't make any difference, but won't take long to test.

If they won't accommodate you, perhaps find a new host. DavidF > > Perhaps go to Tools > Options > Web Options and uncheck Organize supporting > > files in a folder.

You will probably be happier in the long run with FrontPage... DavidF > Redid my site using Frontpage. Images work now.
