Need help with being able to see jpegs on a website. Help pls!
I am designing a website using WYSIWYG software. I put a jpeg image on there and it looked fine in the page preview. I then coped and pasted the html code into my server's FTP but the images do not show. I have viewed it on different browsers and using different operating systems. Is it the format of the image (e.g., jpeg) that's causing the problem or how the code is translated into the FTP? Any ideas or can anyone help. I am pulling my hair out trying to figure it out. By the way I use Windows Vista. Thanks.

The image has to be uploaded to the server as well.
Images are often stored in a directory called "images" in your main directory. If it's not already there, you'll need to create the directory, upload the image to it, then make sure the code in your page points to it.

From a first look at your note...is your images being hosted (did you upload your images to your site) on the server of your webpage or did you simply copy the images into the software?

Ok you both got it first time, thank you so much. I had just copied and pasted it into the software, I didn't upload it to the server. I'm using Go Daddy and wondered if either of you could direct me on how to do it? I'm just not sure where I need to create or find the directory ... I had a look and couldn't find anything called images. Do I create it in the FTP client where my other files are or should I be doing this somewhere else? Any help much appreciated and thanks for taking the time to reply so far.

Looks like you've got the answer already
Try creating a folder in your website files called 'images' as mentioned above -
and load all images there - then write the path to the image in your code accordingly - you'll be all set

LOL - we were typing at the same time - yes, you'll need to create the 'images' folder. Just go into your FTP client and use whatever commands allow you to create a new folder inside the public_html folder - name it 'images' and voila! Then you can upload all of your JPGs directly there.
