    Hi guys

    I am having a problem with a website im building.

    The image banner at the top of the following website isnt showing up for people other than myself:

    http://thewordonwood.co.uk

    Does anyone know what I am doing wrong, and what I need to correct in order to get the banner image to display??

    Many Thanks

    Andy

    It's because your website is linking to files saved on your hard-drive..
    You need to change this section in your head:

    <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="file:///C|/Documents and Settings/user/Desktop/the word on wood/DESIGN 4/css.css">

    As you can see it's linking to a stylesheet on your hardrive, you need to change this to the URL of where the stylesheet is saved on your server/host.

    Hopefully this should solve the problem!!

    edit: where have you actually defined the pic in the stylesheet or on the page, is it meant to be this:

    <td class="pagetop"><img src="/nix.gif" width="1" height="190" alt=""></td>

    because /nix.gif is a 1x1 picture?

    No worries as a tip i would use Div's instead of Table's from now on when you are designing your website.
    Then you assign a class or ID to the div and you can style it from the external stylesheet, makes things easier IMO.
