Obviously a newbie and trying to complete my first website from a WSO I purchased recently. Using Gator hosting and my images are located in the public_html directory in cpanel, but will not show up on my sales page. Any ideas?

    ok well if its in your public directory you should just be able to do this

    <img src="image.jpg" alt ="image"/>

    that should/will work ?

      Check the source code and make sure it is not pointing to graphics in a directory on your computer, If so just edit the line of code and make sure it says your domain name dot whatever, I assume you did upload all the graphics to your server.

    tjs1954,

    Thank you too. Checked code & it's correct. The graphics were in the rood directory. What a great site!

    You should create an image folder, May keep your root directory a bit more tidy.
    <img src="/Folder Name/imageName.jpg" alt ="image"/>
    <img src="/images/image.jpg" alt ="image"/>

    Yes you should be placing all images within a directory. Things will get very confusing if they aren't within a directory. If you had a directory with the name "images", you would code the images in like this:

    <img src="images/image.jpg">

    On Hostgator especially confusing because if you have add on sites, they all sit within the public_html directory.

    Quit wasting your money! If you need a website, get me to do it right! I'll probably even do it for less! Design/Development/Software, I'm your guy! matt@snidge.com
