Where does the image go?

dgk

Basic image control question. How do I set the imageurl property? I
tried relative and I just get the red X, I tried absolute and that
returns a redX (works fine locally, just not over the web). The actual
address (say http://www.mysite.org/theimage.jpg) should point to an
image in the virtual IIS directory, in this case
D:/inetpub/wwwroot/mysite. www.mysite.org is actually a dyamic IP
address that is mapped via www.gotdns.org but I don't think that is
the problem.

Thanks. I did try that and it wasn't working either. Besides, it's a
dynamic IP address and I could never hardcode that. Oddly it doesn't
actually change for months but I can't plan on that. Of course, I have
to have gotdns.org remap the address anyway once it changes but I can
have that done automatically I think.

There was something else weird going on with the app anyway. I kept
viewing the source and the source did not reflect the page. That is, I
saw something about the browser not supporting frames and please
<CLICK HERE>. Nothing about the image or even the text on the webpage.
I had written a default.aspx just to redirect the user to the real
main page so I scrapped that approach and just looked through IIS
until I found where to set the actual first page as one of the
defaults and that worked fine. Then I trashed the first page and
started over just using the filename as the address (it is in the same
directory as the app) and it worked perfectly. So it wasn't the URL
that was bad, it was just something I had screwed up elsewhere.

Where is the extra vertical space coming from?

Bug in Xsl Transformation (unable to return nodelist using choose/where/otherwise in variable)

by: Anders Borum | last post by:

Hello! I've come across a strange error that occurs, when you try to return a nodelist from a variable with a choose/where/otherwise statement. I'm not quite sure whether it's a bug or simply lack of W3C support. All I know is, that this Xsl document works with the current implementation of MSXML V4.0 SP2 if transformed using e.g. VB6. I'm told by the compiler at runtime, that "the expression should evaluate to a nodeset" (the...

Does WebControls.Image actually contain an image?

Does a WebControls.Image object actually contain an image, and if so, how can I get it? As far as I can tell, the WebControls.Image class does not contain the image itself. It seems to only contain the URL to the image, which doesn't work for me because the image file is on the client system. Thanks, Jim

Which image file formats does Image/Bitmap support?

by: Peter Oliphant | last post by:

The Image class allows loading a bitmap from a graphic file. So far I've gotten it to work with JPG and BMP files. What other graphic file formats are supported in this way? Is this fixed based on the .NET Framework used (e.g., the Image class defines which formats can be used), or can different file formats be added after-the-fact (end-user capability in contrast to developer implementation)? Also, is it possible to save an image in...
