Please Help a newbie! Photos won't show up

#1 Post by captainsdirectory » 2012-01-05 22:35

HI All,

I'm new to this and don't know much about servers and uploading websites, but enough to create my own site on Dreamweaver and use filezilla to upload it.

All worked fine for months, but suddenly when I tried to replace an image in my photo gallery with another image, it would not load properly. Just a blank white image popped up.

So I re-did the whole image gallery in dreamweaver for that page: Re-linking each image code to their sources, making sure they were named properly, testing it in dreamweaver preview. All seemingly is fine. All the images show up perfectly in Preview.

So I deleted the image folder from filezilla and re-transferred it over and now none of the images show up on my website.

What am I missing here??? I understand broken code, lower case, etc, and have checked on all of these things. It must be something I don't know about Filezilla. Is it pulling it from the wrong source?

1. Do the images on the FTP server have exactly the same size as the ones on your machine? If not, you possibly transferred them as ASCII by accident.

2. Maybe the permissions on the server are messed up? In FileZilla, right click one non-working image and select File Permissions. What does it show?
