well i need some help, with my html.

if you go here (http://www.uberlosers.co.uk) you wil find my website in a very sorry state of affairs.
you should notice the lack of text and the abundance of red x's. the reason theres no text is because it is white and my back ground wont load. the reason there are red x's are because the pics wont load up.

i coded it all up in html, and the actual right hand frame is working but the pics arent, so its pretty much useless at the moment :S

im assuming that im doing something wrong in my html, seeing the pics are supposedly coming from a directory on my PC as well. so where should they be coming from?

if you want to see my html for it so far just pm me and ill send you a copy.

thanks for any help http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif

either your pictures are not uploaded to the server, or you are not pointing to the correct url....

the images directory has to exist in the same directory as the html file, if it is not in the same directory, you can link back to it by adding the full url like so:

http://www.yoururl.com/whatever/images/picture.jpg

you either need to do something like this, or create an images directory in the same directory as your html pages, and upload the pictures there. Follow my advice and you will fix your problem. If you are unsure of how to upload pictures to your server, PM me and give me some details on how your host works and I can lend a hand.

yeah, that sounds right.
it only works off line correctly because the images are in the right place, and what i learnt this stuff from is purely offline, so im guessing this is the reason, i think i could have it working soonish now with this help.

thanks http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif

i think i was wrong.

the images directory is in the same directory as my html file. so i have my folder called "re-vamp" in there is the menu page, the home page, and the index page. also, my images folder is in re-vamp.
the index controls the frames, the menu is the page that works on the left hand side. the home page is the one that isnt working properly.

its all going worng and not working http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_frown.gif

hey, to get it to work I just stumbled upon the answer.

simply delete the images/ part of the image urls and it'll work

P.S. : don't worry, I do this stuff for a living http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif it can get pretty dramatic at times

I would also suggest using "your" instead of "ur." You know, use proper English and such to make it real nice and friendly looking.
