| 537567 | 2007-04-04 09:50:00 | Yesterday IE7 did not display the image, today it does! The code is the same <img src="images/fabricprotection.jpg" :rolleyes: also the code for the gif image <img src="images/mummywraps3.gif" has no leading forward slash but seems to display OK, does this display in earlier IE browsers? It may not be obvious unless you know it should be there. The code for the other image is <img src="/images/mummy2blackandwhite.jpg" complete with leading forward slash which seems to display OK in all browsers. At least inserting the missing forward slashes will confirm or otherwise if that is the problem. JonB |

| 537569 | 2007-04-04 12:05:00 | The slash issue as pointed out already should probally be sorted out first if the images cannot be viewed. I cannot test this as I have no access to the server. Other corrections: The page itself <div class="central"> <table width="760px" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="border: solid 1px #7F7D59;"> <tr> <td class="header" colspan="2"> <img src="images/mummywraps3.gif" width="255px" height="60px" alt="MummyWraps" border="0"> should be changed to <div id="central"> <table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="border: solid 1px #7F7D59;"> <tr> <td class="header" colspan="2"> <img src="www.mummywraps.com alt="MummyWraps" border="0">Please note I had to use the full path to images when I tested, as have no access to the server. Also the css file .central { change to #central { |

| 537570 | 2007-04-04 12:25:00 | Just had a thougt, the correction to the css is for that page only, they would need to change all the other pages that use <div class="central"> to <div id="central"> | Rob99 (151) | ||
| 537571 | 2007-04-05 03:16:00 | Just a thought from me ... The terminology for the leading slash/noslash would be "absolute" or "relative" addressing. The images directory is at the root level, so it's probably OK with either format iff the page code is also at the top ("root" :D ) level, as long as the code remains there. If in some "improvement" of the site the code or the images directory is moved there will be problems. | Graham L (2) | ||
| 537572 | 2007-04-08 09:18:00 | Well, the site is not fixed yet and I get the feeling that there is a certain lack of professionalism being exhibited by the developer . In fact, I might go so far as to suggest that my friend is in the hands of a 20 . 15 . 19 . 19 . 5 . 18 or possibly even a 23 . 1 . 14 . 11 . 5 . 18 . However, I am not into such hasty judgements so I will await further developments . All your suggestions and advice have been forwarded in full, the site owner is very grateful, and I live in hope of ultimately achieving a satisfactory resolution! Cheers Billy 8-{) :illogical |

| 537573 | 2007-04-08 10:58:00 | The source code for each of the jpg images now has the leading forward slash in place and they display OK in my IE7. Although the gif image for the MummyWraps banner does not have the leading forward slash in the source code it does display OK, but in the interests of consistent code, should'nt it also be in there?

| 537574 | 2007-04-09 23:52:00 | Site is still not fixed in terms of IE5 . 5 and IE6 . 0, though I believe most of your recommendations have been implemented . There are also further functional problems with the site in the payments section and I believe that the site owner will soon be looking at legal action against the developer if all issues are not rectified forthwith .

| 537575 | 2007-04-11 23:00:00 | Well, thanks to your skilled and much appreciated assistance, as of this morning the site is finally functional in IE5.5 and IE6.0. I would appreciate any comments you may wish to make about the repaired code because I do see image size and placement variations between 5.5 and 6.0, but I guess I shouldn't be too picky, at least it is now working. The site owner again conveys his sincere appreciation for your assistance and he has commented on the huge increase in hits from NZ that the site has taken since this thread was started. He has one question that he would like me to ask, and that is whether or not there is any self-regulatory body of webmasters to whom he might refer his concerns about the performance of this particular web designer. Clearly he will be seeking some redress but he is unsure if there is any organisation he can approach for advice. Thanks again to all who helped, you well deserve a three-thumbs award for your valued contributions. Cheers Billy 8-{) :thumbs: :thumbs: :thumbs: |

There is an organisation who proffess to be a standards body for the industry. But they're a group of schmucks who've joined a schmuck who's not honestly intent on representing the industry but is looking at getting himself a cash cow. If your client/friend wants to express his disapproval in the developer's work it's easy enough to walk away - cancel the service. |
