Hi guys,

After spending a full day searching in vain the forum and the web, I come here to ask for help.
In the forum this was addressed time ago but without a clearcut answer.
 
I have in my tpl this line in the <head> section:
Code: [Select]
<left><img src="C:\Archivos de programa\HFS\ximatic_logo.gif"</left>
When doing a local browsing its shows up fine, but when connecting through the web, from different PCs at different locations, my logo is allways broken (square with red X).

I research, discovered and tried many many things like to place the logo file in other path, path without %20, path in another drive, all in lower case, try logo as gif and jpg, change to relative addressing, etc, etc, etc,  to no avail.
 
So far I am unable to get it fixed and I have not a clue of what I am doing wrong. I am getting quite frutrated by this going nowhere :(. BTW I'm newbie to html. My system is XPpro SP2 based, and all browsers used so far are IE.

The bottom line:    Help !

your gif file must be accessible to browsers on your HFS.
you must put the file in your virtual file system.
if you put it in a folder called "images", then the tag will be
<img src='/images/myfile.gif'>
