June 16, 200421 yr Hi all, I've run into a small problem that for the life me has me stumped. Using CDML I call up a record that has an image saved inside a container field in the database, the field is named: item_pict All of the text from the database shows up correctly and even the portal data in all browsers, but in IE only the images do not display. I have a field called <img src=[FMP-image: item_pict]> in Foxfox 0.9, Safari, and Mozilla 1.7 I get the image to display with the text. Nevertheless, IE5.5 and IE6 say they can't find the picture. I looked at the page source and IE returns the same source code as the others: <td><img src="FMPro?-db=frames.fp5&key=1&-img>"></td> What in the world am I missing? Thanks.
June 17, 200421 yr I would use quotes: <img src=[FMP-image: item_pict]> to this: <img src="[FMP-image: item_pict]"> Good Luck. Garry
June 17, 200421 yr Garry's correct. Further, serving pictures from a container field is a waste of FMP (memory). It is better to store the pix elsewhere and serve them through a .txt document referenced from FMPro with the fmp-include tag.
June 17, 200421 yr Author Thanks Garry and Unable So if I just create a file with Notepad that is the path to the picture: Like Dreamweaver creates a path /assets/pics/pict_01.gif Then just save this as pict_01.txt Does that sound correct? Thanks for your help guys.
June 17, 200421 yr Author Oh and not to be more of a bother, but I didn't mention that I am serving this through Web Server Companion and Apache on OS X Server. I don't know if it makes a difference, but just thought I would throw it out there. I'm on my way to try what Garry said. Thanks
June 17, 200421 yr Author Thank you, thank you. Man when I am on a deadline I kind of freak out. I have to deliver this by Monday and I thought I was doomed. It turned out to be one simple typo that I've overlooked time and time again. I had: <img src="[FMP-image: item_pict]>" Really, thanks again.
