Image Link Issues

This is a discussion on Image Link Issues within the Macromedia Dreamweaver forums in Adobe Tools category; I have built a basic site using tables. Nothing fancy. On my local drive, everything is fine. I uploaded the entire site to my ISP, but several images appear as broken. I tried re-uploading those images, but this does not fix the problem. I tried using another FTP application, Fetch, to see if the FTP is corrupting the GIF files during transfer. No effect. Some html pages do not show up at all. Does anyone know what this means?...

Default Image Link Issues

I have built a basic site using tables. Nothing fancy. On my local drive,
everything is fine.

I uploaded the entire site to my ISP, but several images appear as broken. I
tried re-uploading those images, but this does not fix the problem. I tried
using another FTP application, Fetch, to see if the FTP is corrupting the GIF
files during transfer. No effect. Some html pages do not show up at all.

Does anyone know what this means?

I think the problem you are having is twofold. First, the images have
not been uploaded to the directory where the server is looking for them.
I'm unfamiliar with GoLive. You might want to consult the GoLive experts
rather than the Dreamweaver ones.

Wouldn't matter which application was used to build the pages.

The page does not validate - its first three lines are:

<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html;charset=utf-8" />
<meta name="generator" content="Adobe GoLive" />
<title>Aaron Prager - Creative Director / Art Director</title>

So, no doctype, no <html> tag, no <head> tag, and no </head> tag. That
combined with the extreme repetition of the GL CSAction scripts make this a
very poor page.

It appears that this image -
http://members.cox.net/aaronprager/quotes/quotes20.gif - has not been
uploaded, at least not to that location.

I'd say you have a serioous rebuild ahead.

I turned off JavaScript because I want to see in my status bar where
links are supposed to go. IMO, it is wrong to hide that information
from the status bar.

After poking around some of the links, it seems none of the quotes
images are there. Likewise for most, if not all, of the "random"
images.

Indeed. Just a few other problems not mentioned yet...

Multiple loading of .js files (GeneratedItems/CSScriptLib.js is
"imported" 33 times on the home page!)

resume.html exists, but is empty.
branding.html [Portfolio/Promotions] is 404.
contact.html is all broken images.
No link back to "Home" on any of the pages.
No text on the entire site that search engines can read. With
the exception of the copyright, it's a 100% graphics site.

.... and on and on.

Mr. Happy Day, you say you uploaded your entire site and, as you say,
it seems not. I'm not sure if this applies since you /seem/ to be using
an all lower case file naming convention, but you should be aware that
your Web server is case sensitive. In other words, quotes20.gif is not
the same as Quotes20.GIF.

SERIOUS rebuild. I recommend you back up your site somewhere and start
fresh with DW. I suspect it would be quicker than trying to repair the
existing pages.
