hi. new to dw. have been building sites w/bbedit for years. am liking dw sans a lil problem i have encountered with images not displaying in netscape 4.7 (mac).

im looking at the code and the relative link looks fine/standard - <img src="images/whatever.gif">

when i look at site in netscape 4.7/mac the image areas are filled in with text that says "images.com"

there must be something in the dreamweaver code that is pointing at something other than the images directory. maybe the issue is not setting up a local root directory when i was editing the code on my machine? i was primarily using bbedit but opened in dreamweaver for some of the behavior tools...

see urls i am speaking of (again- it's just ns 4.7 mac issue)
www.tw-co.com
www.avartists.org/FourBridges/secret/index.html

i am aware that ns 4.7 does not support many css elements- the tw-co.com does use css, the second site doesnt use css--- both have the images.com text showing. i also know that 4.7 is only about 5% of users- but i hate putting something flawed out there



please lend me your thoughts.

is there a reason this base reference is in there?
<base href="www.4bridgesartsfestival.org" target="_self">

the images on the page don't exist at the base url.

That's genuinely strange.

If I use NN4.7 to browse directly to one of your images, e.g., mc_thumb.jpg,
then I see it fine.

Is it possible that you GOT these images from www.images.com, and that's the
way they watermark them somehow?

Also, I see the same effect on NN4x PC too....
