A5w page images not displaying

[Peter.Greulich]

I have inserted a couple of simple static images onto an a5w page but when I view on localhost they won't display. They look fine on the WSYWIG view of the a5w page editor. What am I missing?

Peter,

Usually, you have to put in a relative path to the images. In this case, they might not have been copied into the a5webroot where localhost is looking.

Pat, I checked. They are in the webroot. Any other ideas?

Hi Pete, this is very unusual, what format are the images, also lok at the source in the a5w page and ensure it does not have a drive or path - just the file name.

Pete, the images are jpeg & png. Tomorrow I'll post a sample page and image. Maybe someone could take a look at it then? Thanks.

the images are jpeg & png.

Niether of those file types are on the default allowed file types. Did you add them?

Hi I have used png images with no issues before.

If you really want to go nuts with images - it will do it - here's a sample style i'm using to move away from conventional page call methods to basically never leaving the single a5w page that hosts the grid, eveything being display is a grid, no dialogs or menu navigation. All secuity enabled to the field, anyhow hope you enjoy the video.

Peter,

Assuming you've implemented the static image in such a way that it should result in generation of an html img tag, did you perhaps use your browser's View Source option to check to see the tag was indeed present and that the path was reasonable?

Al,

That might be it. Where do I add those file types to be allowed?

P.S. Why aren't they "allowed" by default?

web security - page security - just above the close button

I'm guessing that the other question is rhetorical...???

Are you saying that security has to be enabled in oder to view an image on an a5w page?

Yeah, I guess it's rhetorical.

If you don't have security enabled, then security won't be blocking anything.

But if you do have security enabled, then you need to be sure that the various file types you need are allowed by security.

Sounds like you don't have security on, so this isn't the issue.

Peter - post the lines of code you're have to display the images. You know we're gonna need to see that eventually...

Exactly. No security so the images should display. Just for the heck of it, I enabled security, allowed the file types and still no dice.
