I am adding images (Ads) to my site and the images (only certain ones) are not showing up on my site on a PC, it looks fine on a mac though. Has anyone ever heard of this before?

No. It has not happened to me, but some ideas:

1. check file extension of images. Should be gif or jpeg, png is ok too.

2. check size.

3. ensure there are no spaces in name of file (imags). ie my_pic.jpg not my pic.jpg

4. check the image is located in the right directory.

5. check that your html source code is valid.

Was this issue ever resolved for you? I'm having the same problem. Paths to image files are correct, images are on the server and will display if you browse to the actual image. But some images are not displaying within the html pages. They display fine locally. File types are all jpgs and are designated as such. Images are sized correctly. Code validates ok. I'm stumped.

In dreamweaver, are you browsing to locate the image or defining the source of the image in code view?

One thing that can often go wrong is people do something like this

img src="nameofimage.jpg"

If that image is located where it should be, its worth going into code view and checking the extension of the image.

img src="nameofimage.JPG"

Notice the caps at the end. Sometimes its the other way around

.JPG should be .jpg.

.jpg should be .JPG

Depends how you named the image at the time of creating/saving it.

I just had the same problem on a Macintosh computer using Dreamweaver, I thought everything was OK, but I tried removing an underline in some of the image file names and it fixed all my woes. For some reason, everything looked fine in Dreamweaver, but on the browsers, some files didn't show. Interestingly, some file names which contained _ (the underline) did show up fine, others would not. Hope this helps!

When inserting images using Dreamweaver, use the "Insert" Tab in Dreamweaver.

Dreamweaver will prompt you if the path to your page is not relative to your image. Save your page and Dreamweaver will make the necessarry linking adjustments. Your page must be saved in the same directory as it would be uploaded to your server.

For example if your page is saved in "abc-site", images should be saved in either "abc-site" or "abc-site/images". Upload the whole of "abc-site" to your server and your images will appear.
