How do I upload a php site in dreamweaver properly?

I loaded a pre-built site into dreamweaver. Half of the pages were built in php format. I built a new page to add to the site with new links and pictures. But when I uploaded the site to the web, neither the pictures nor the links worked. Any ideas what might have caused this? Or something I missed that would prevent a newly added page from working? Settings etc? I'm using Dreamweaver CS4. Thanks in advance.

    Did you upload the new pictures to your server as well?

    Also, make sure you didnt accidentally save it in html if your needing it to be a php page.

    Can you post a link or a code sample? There are loads of things that could cause this. If I see an example I'll be able to help you.

    hi there,

    i think you have not uploaded the picture on the server or the link you have added in your web page is a local link to image. You can change the image links to work it properly

    Thanks,
    Webcare

      Try using the FTP protocol to upload the files manually. Your host most probably supports FTP so all you need to do is download a client like FileZilla and then you can upload the files directly to your website.

      I believe he means he was using Dreamweaver to edit the site, added the pics and content, content showed but the pics didn't.

      You need to fix your URLs in your code, instead of seeing C:/hardrive/projects/yourwebsite/images/banner.jpg you need /images/banner.jpg

      Hope that helped.
