Uploading images

Hi,

I have created an EZ Page and want to add an image to it with a link in it. I have added the following code to the EZ page:

<a href=" <http://www.halloween-and-more.com/index.php?main_page=page&id=21> " target="_top">

<img src=”haunted_houses.jpg" width="125" height="125" alt="Haunted Houses" border="0"/></a>

I uploaded the image to the public_html/images folder. But the image is not showing on the page. All that shows up is a box with a small red cross in the top right hand corner. The link works but the image doesn't show up.

Just wondering how I get the image to show on the page? Which folder do I actually upload it to?

<img src=”/images/haunted_houses.jpg" width="125" height="125" alt="Haunted Houses"

Re: Uploading images

Hello, thanks for your help.

I tried this but to no avail.

I have a bit of confusion on how the image is actually found in the html. My files go: public_html/images/haunted_houses.jpg and so I tried this option as well as what you mentioned: /images/haunted_houses.jpg, but neither worked.

I've also seen another post in the forum under the title: "Solution to use images for EZ-Pages links" which I thought might work but didn't.

Do you have any other suggestions on how else I could try to get the image to show in the EZ page?

I'm not really sure what it is I'm doing wrong.

Thanks!

Re: Uploading images

The line below is from "view source" of your page. Notice that the url has extra quotes and will be causing the problem.

<img height="125" border="0" width="125" alt="Haunted Houses" src="”http://www.halloween-and-more.com/images/haunted_houses.jpg""/>

Re: Uploading images

If you are using one of the html (WYSIWYG) editors and selecting the "insert link" function - it takes care of the quotes encapsulation so you should not be typing them also when entering the link
