Sorry in advance if I dont explain this very well.
Im making a web site for the clan im in. Ive made the members page in fireworks. It has our names down the side and as you hold the mouse over them the centre of the page changes to show our details ( using different frames ). This works fine on the local machine but as soon as I upload it it does not work.

link is http://www.sephirothpd.f2s.com/

I would be greatfull for any help

Looks like it does not like your image paths for some reason.

Try replacing: "../../Sites/clan site/member/spacer.gif" with the full path, http://etc...

Although I think it will be the space in the folder name that is casuing you trouble. File names and Folders names should not really contain any spaces.

ive taken the spaces out of my file names but im a bit lost as to what you want me to do with the spacer file. OK at lot confused :rolleyes:
Im kind of learning this as I go along for the tutorials
 
Sorry, not the spacer image, you have a directory call "clan site". Make this directory "clansite" and update your code to reflect this.

im not uploading like that m8. im uploading it all with a separte FTP in a folder then moving it out of the folder once uploaded.

so instead of clan site/index

I have f2s.com/index

when I did it the other way the browser could not find the index page

am I doing it wrong?

Ok, then you need to update your HTML code to reflect this.

The directory structure should be the same localy as it is going to be on you server.

For example, localy you have a folder called site which contains all the files for your site and is structured like this:

index.html
members.html
images
-spacer.gif
-anotherimage.gif

You would them upload all the contents of site to the root of your server.

If you want you can catch me on msn and I will help you out.

http://www.sephirothpd.f2s.com/

had to put the flash html code in the same folder as the page. No idea why.
Cheers for your help sfx

quick question

why did work

f2s.com/index
f2s.com/lots of fireworks stuff

and did not work

f2s.com/index
f2s.com/members/fireworksstuff

where fireworks stuff is loads of files fireworks exported when I made it html

It didn't work like that because you had your links to your content in your index.html pointing to the same folder as the index.html. For example:

In index.html you might have a link to image.gif which would be like: <img src="image.gif">

But if you move this image to a folder called images you would need to make the link <img src="images/image.gif">

Hope this helps.
