Embedded Images

[Big Game Hunter]

Greetings Everyone

I need some help on embedding a gif into my content. We busy running offers & i wanted to embed a flashing gif into the product discription. I have done this with the usual code as you would do.Here's the code i used,
!!<<img border="0" src="table%20offer.gif"></p>>!!

Loaded the image to the right location on the server, not working though.

Any ideas ???????

Cheers
Shannon :cool:

%20 is a space and your server/browser may not like this.
Also you don't need the </p at the end.
Don't forget to manually upload the file or add it to your additional files list.

Hiya Duncan

Cheers for the advice there. I just changed that html now, made sure the pic was on the server. no luck though ? Any suggestions ?

Thanks for the help...

This is a snippet of some code I use in descriptions that works for me:
!!<<img src="image.jpg" border="0" >>!!

Maybe border="0" prefers go at the end.

Also..

If you copy the image into PreviewHTML do you see it in the actinic preview pane?
Do you see the image placement square but no image or nothing at all?
Did you try renaming the file to exclude the space?

That HTML seems OK. Try using a browser to open http://www.mysite.com/acatalog/tableoffer.gif - that will let you see if the image is up there and is displayable. The just make sure the HTML matches the image name perfectly. Case may be important ( best to make a rule that all image names are alphanumeric with maybe only - and _ as extra characters - and spaces are a bad idea).

Don't forget to add in alt="special offer" into the tag also
