I checked out one of my sites today (I wanted to reuse some code from it and it was quicker to just get it up on screen rather than trundle all the way to the PC where the files for that site are - I'm working on the laptop at the moment). Got the page up though, and no images!!!! wtf?!?!?! The image paths are fine, worked okay yesterday and has done ever since it went live, but all that comes up now is the alt text. Nothing's changed recently. The files are still there where they should be on the server, and I tried uploading them again to see if that made any difference, but none... My hosts's server status page isn't reporting any problems with the server (and I have another site on the same server that's just fine). The server seems to be a little on the slow side today, but a ping came back just fine. Any ideas? _____________________________ ~~ "A cruel god ain't no god at all" ~~

Every so often, I have seen the images become corrupted (for the lack of a better word). They will not show up in a browser window, but I can open them locally with an imaging program. I then convert the image from a JPG to a JPG and re-upload the image and then things seem fine. _____________________________ Corey R.

I've actually just managed to solve the problem - in a flash of inspiration I suddenly thought to check out my firewall. I installed Kerio a couple of days ago on my laptop which I'm working from at the mo. It's bloody good but not yet fully house-trained and slightly over-zealous. I switched it off for a mo, refreshed the page, and lo, the images came back! Switched it back on and they disappeared again! The only thing I can think that's causing its paranoia is that I have StatCounter on that particular site and it's that it's objecting to. I've added that domain to the 'safe' list, and now the images are back. It's worrying me a little though and I'm wondering if I ought to take the StatCounter off before I start getting emails from the client asking what I've done with all the piccies. At least the mystery's solved though... _____________________________ ~~ "A cruel god ain't no god at all" ~~ (in reply to coreybryant)

Odd though why Kerio thinks the images are not being served on the server though. _____________________________ Corey R.

If I don't get any joy from the help files I'll get onto their tech support. _____________________________ ~~ "A cruel god ain't no god at all" ~~ (in reply to coreybryant)
