John,
Perhaps I'm thinking rather too much (or not enough, as the case may be), but isn't the "sodden" picture address part of the URL? L
OK Lauren you qualify
The point I tried to make was that Char had the second time tried to link not to an actual picture because she tried to use the URL "htp://www.cbc.ca/news/background/budget/"(note for clarity and to prevent the URL appearing as a clickable link I have deleted one of the two "t"s in "http") which is the URL only for the higher folder named "budget" only, and not therefore tbe picture's full URL, which does not of course work. If you check the correct picture URL you will find that there is an extra "gfx/lightfoot_gordon.jpg" after "budget". showing that the actual jpg picture file is in the subfolder "gfx" under the budget folder
even the renamed DMD3 in his second posting above after showing off with the bigger Fitz pic then tried to show a cgi page by putting in between the img tags:-
htp://www.corfid.com/cgi-bin/ubb/postings.cgi (again I have omitted one of the two "t"s in the full URL he used) just right click on the white square-red cross thingie then select properties to check what he tried to link to.
I trust that explanation makes it clearer!!!
Phew it is hot and humid here in NJ today (wipes fevered brow with clean snot-rag)
