First, I am using VS2005 with windows XP. I am having an issue where I cannot
see the images in my usercontrols or the ASPX pages they are dropped onto
(the ASPX pages are on the root of the site for now). Indies my user control
I am using a standard html img tag:
<img src="/images/imageName.jpg" alt="" title="Test"/>
Here is the path structure
c:\websites\NewSite
Under NewSite we have these folders
Images
UserControls
The usercontrol is in the UserControls folder. if I change the src to
src="../images/imageName.jpg". I can see the images int he UC, but not when I
drop it on an ASPX page int he root of the site. Also, I cannot see the
images, when on an ASPX page if I keep the scr the same as above. If I change
the scr to src="images/imageName.jpg" I can then see the images in the ASPX
page, but obviously not on the userControl. I have tried creating an ASP.Net
web application, just a website project, and have changed what I use for the
web server (meaning I have created a site on my 2003 server and have pointed
the app to look at the site. I have also tired using the built in web server
with VS2005).
If I use src="/images/imageName.jpg" the site builds OK and I can see the
images in the brwoser, but not in VS2005. I have tried using ~ in front of
the /, but no go there. I have read Scott's blog on how to get this to work,
but it didn’t work for me. Perhaps I am not setting up my environment
correctly. Thanks to all who may reply.
