I would be very grateful if one or more of you would point your web
browsers at 65.108.100.215
This is a mirror of the Warbird's Forum website. When I look at it,
there are no images--only a Bill Gatesian red X where the image should
be. When the hosting company looks at the page, the images are there.
I went to the library and used one of the terminals there--no joy! But
perhaps the library and I are both using the same service provider.
So what do you see? Images or red X's?
Thanks!
all the best -- Dan Ford

Neither: the Netscape broken image symbol for the pictures, plus all the
text, links etc. Netscape Communicator 4.76 (as you can see, I don't
exactly keep my software updated to the latest version).

Very odd.
I get the red x problem initially, but I can make the pictures appear with
some work. I right click on the picture's space, show its properties, and
copy the full address of the picture to the browser address bar (e.g.,
http://65.108.100.215/forumbanner2.jpg ). That takes me to the picture on
a blank page all by itself. If I then go back to the whole page, the
picture is visible in its proper place. That's using IE6 and coming in via
Earthlink.
Damifino what's up. Some sort of cache/address problem, it looks like.

Log on to the site, disable your firewall, and refresh the screen. For some
reason firewalls will decide certain images are intrusions. If this trick
works, you might try to tweak the firewall.

The webserver at 65.108.100.165 seems to have trouble with relative local
image URLs, like the "plain" filenames (i.e. without directory path and/or
"http://..." prefix) of the images. When you pass the full URL to the
server it works. If you then return to the HTML page, the browser get the
JPG/GIF from its cache (if you "refresh" the page, the photos are gone
again, because a refresh ignores the cache).
Anyway, a look at the webserver's access log should reveal which URL it gets
to "see" when the images are to be loaded and which HTTP code is returned
(not necessarily a 404). This should give some hint at the nature of the
problem (almost certainly some kind of mis-configuration of the webserver -
I think some of these have lots of strange options regarding what they
"hide" or not).

I have exactly the same. Opera 6 (masq'ing as IE). Right click on the blank
space/Show Image...there it is.
Seems to be a prob with the relative addressing. What webserver is this
running on?

Hmm. What that sounds like is a timeout problem. Whatever's handling
the pictures was giving a slow response, and either the Browser, or
the Web Server basically gave up waiting. When you loaded the picture
individually, it got cached (Which makes it sound like a server-side
problem) and your browser uses its own local copy to fill in.
They seam to have sorted it out now, though (17:30 Dan's Local Time).

Whatever it was, it seems to be sorted out. Now I get all the images,
including some that I didn't load into cache before.

Now that his problem is well surveyed how about some advice?
I have a huge problem with "Runtime errors" And this error

I get this very often...I can usually get into the 'root' of
these URL's but if I try to get beyond the root then the above

Under Opera 6.03 and Mozilla 1.2.1, I got images.
IE 5.1.7 gave me red exes.

Just so, Andreas. It is a mirror site (I'm changing hosts) and I
copied over everything, including the .htaccess file that blocks
people from hotlinking my images. Well, it turned out that the file of
course was written for the existing site, and it blocked the new one
as an interloper, even though the images were on the same site and in
the same directory.

It is very common these days among the mass-market servers
(MSN, AOL, RR, Geocities, Tripod, etc.) to disallow "remote loading"
of images. (It prevents "hijacking" someone else's images into
your page, for example.) Most often, they do this by checking
the "referer" webpage, which your browser sends during the HTTP
request. If it isn't inside the same hierarchy (MSN/owner webpage,
in this case) - it won't serve up images.
What we have here is a case where either:
- the "mirror" is trying to save disk space/bandwidth charges
by remote loading the images... OR
- the mirror's webpages are *exact* copies of the original,
and set the base webpage to MSN (instead of itself); the
mirror then denies serving up images because it appears
to be requested from a foreign base page: MSN, rather than
itself.
The coding is defective, and non-compliant with standards.
It doesn't matter if some very recent browsers (with massive
security holes) can overcome the defects.
The techno-yahoos will complain that everyone should upgrade
their browser to the latest-and-greatest "fault tolerant"
versions. Bull. If the website complied with the standards,
*no one* would experience difficulties with it.
