    I am creating a webpage by importing a fireworks document into dreamweaver , then uploading the document (labeled index.html) into my root folder in my hosting account. The problem is when I go to my site to check everthing there is just a n X there in place of the picture (page i created in fireworks). Can someone please help.
    thanks

    make sure the image is in the folder you have set with dreamweaver.
    normally when it isnt, it displays "X" and this means it cannot find the image.

    Sonnysingh,

    To elaborate on what Aaron700 said, a red X means that the web server cannot find the image at the location that it thinks that it should be. This usually means that the path that your code is telling the server to find the image at is incorrect.

    When I get this problem, the first thing that I do is make sure that I have spelled the image name correctly in the <IMG> section of my code. If that is not the problem, the next thing that I try is to make the reference an absolute one, or basically write the entire web address of the image in the code, instead of just part of it.

    For instance, try referencing the image using the entire http address of the image instead of just starting the REF with /.

    Hope this helps!
