Images directory?

Has anyone been able to figure out what the criteria is for an image file to be placed in the "Images" directory versus the sub-directory of the page? Some are big, some are small, all are jpgs.
I have been playing around with some post-publish editting of the .html, was able to get a "current date" script in-lines pretty easily. Also made a working version of a image with mapped links.
http://www.johndecker.net/main/Libya%20and%20Egypt.html

I'll have to test it with another graphic, but I believe it was mentioned that if the image is the same image at the same place every time it's used in a site, then that image would go in there. I have an image that I use for the background of my page and it's in there.

How to get the full image directory when i upload the image to web page???

hai, how to get the full image directory when i upload the image to web page???
here is the example:
<form action="uploadfile.jsp" method="post">
image<input type="file" name="image" />
<input type="submit" value="submit"/>
<%
String s=request.getParameter("image");
%>
<%=s%>
</form>
i upload the image from C:\image\center.gif. i use request.getParameter just can get the image name like "center.gif". Can anybody help me how to get the full path name. Thanks a lot..

There is no need to get the path. It is also fairly pointless as the server cannot access the client's local file system.

How to hide image directory from search engines?

Hi,
This is more an SEO question than DW but I can't think who else to ask and I suspect this crowd will know the answer...
I feel like this is a new thing....my image directory is showing up in google for a site that isn't even live yet. The index page is just an image. But I've got dozens of pages on my server and hundreds of photos in an image directory for the images on those dozens of pages. But the current temporary, static index page doesn't have any links to the interior pages yet. I dont remember ever having this happen where (1) the pages that are on my server are being indexed even though there isn't an index page with links to it and (2) I've never seen my image directory show up on Google! I sure don't want that. It's all my original psd files with layers etc.
Is this a "no follow" kind of issue? Is this a new issues? How do I prevent my image directory from showing up in google? It was bizarre...I did a search in google for a term and it brought up my own image directory with an image named that name!! I almost had a heart attack.
Anyone have a favorite SEO forum to post this in as well?
Any help appreciated.
Laura

As always, you are such a reliable source of help! :-)
That robots.txt you mentioned...do what with that? I mean, how does that tell it "dont index the images"? For that matter, there are tons of pages on the server I don't want being indexed yet either because they are half baked for later development.
Thanks!
Create the file, and upload it to the root directory. It's as simple as that. But you'll have to read the details on the google hits to see the exact syntax of the exclusions.
Now - here's why this is happening....
Somewhere, google has found a link to this URL -
http://bluehippotravel.com/photos/destinations/TH/
The bluehippotravel host has NOT disabled directory browsing. When you browse to that URL, instead of getting a FORBIDDEN message like you should, you get a page listing the contents of that directory. Google is indexing that page. Ask your host to turn off directory browsing for that folder.

Where is the virtual images directory for an ORACLEXE HTMLDB installation?

Hi,
I've already got a standalone installation of HTMLDB which has an /images/ directory on my file server containing all gifs/themes/templates/css files etc. I've created an application that I'm going to use for my business and I've changed some of the underlying giff's and css files.
On another machine I've just installed Oracle Express Edition (as it's free for commercial use) which has an integrated HTMLDB environment, that is the same as the standalone one as far as I can tell, except that it does not appear to have an /images/ directory stored on the file system??
I've done a complete search and nothing is found. If I type http://127.0.0.1:8080/i/ into my web browser all the files and directories are displayed! Does any one know the location of these files or how the HTTP listener is translating /i/?
I need to mod these existing files in order to correctly display my business application from my other standalone installation of htmldb.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

How to specify image directory in Tomcat servlet?

The following will display the counter.png image stored in my Tomcat webapps/ROOT/images directory (even from a servlet at webapps/counters):outText.println("<IMG SRC=\"/images/counter.png\">");but what's the magical incantation to get at webapps/counters/images/counter.png... which is where I want to create the things (and am successfully doing so- I just can't get them to display!)?
Tomcat comes with some servlet webapps/examples that display "navigation" graphics from the webapps/examples/images directory, but the example code doesn't include the navigation bits!)outText.println("<IMG SRC=\"/counter/images/counter.png\">");and other seemingly obvious variations do not work.

So, it appears the "current directory" is webapps/ROOT. If you want to get at webapps, you need the parent of the current directory, which is denoted by "..". Therefore, to get at webapps/counters/images/counter.png, you need "../counters/images/counter.png".

Mapping Windows Drive to Image Directory

Several months ago I came across a thread (or perhaps a HOWTO) that outlined the process for mapping a network drive to the image directory. Unfortunately I have not been able to find it. Can someone familiar with that post point me in the right direction? I have100+ images to upload and I don't want to do them one at a time.
Thanks for your help.

Cant see the /i/ images directory in Apex

Hello,
I'm trying to access and modify the next file http://127.0.0.1:8080/i/themes/theme_22/css/theme_4_0.css.
I already set the port to grant access through ftp, the following query gives me 2100 select dbms_xdb.getftpport from dual;
I can connect via ftp but the /i/ directory is not listed so I cant modify any file.
I'm using cuteFTP 8 and my OS is windows 7.
Thanks for any clue!
Alejandro

Hello Alejandro,
+/i/+ is just an alias. The corresponding directory in XDB is actually +/images/+ and is linked to the alias +/i/+ in the DAD.
Do you see that directory on your system? If not, which user do you use for login? I can login to my XDB with "system" and get access to the images directory.

405 Method Not Allowed error from images directory

Some background: I'm implementing fusioncharts in APEX and the commercial version comes with an Save as Image capability. When the user wants to save the chart as an image, an aspx file is called which calls a POST method to the directory where the aspx file is located.
I store the aspx and its dependent files in a subfolder in the images directory and reference it using http://myserver/i/imagesaving/FusionChartsSave.aspx. Then when I try to save, I get 405 Method Not Allowed: 'the requested method POST is not allowed for the URL /i/imagesaving/FusionChartsSave.aspx.'
The aspx functions work for sure because I am able to successfully save to image when I put the files in IIS and reference the url to the aspx file that way.
My main concern is trying to keep all the files in the APEX environment which is Apache. Is there a place where I can perform the POST or configure apache to a directory that allows POST?
thanks!

Problem with 4.1 Install new Image directory

Hi,
I ran the upgrade install in the directory where the new apex was unzipped to and that was successful. Since this is an upgrade using embedded pl/sql gateway I ran the apxldimg.sql in same directory but I am getting an error and when I go to the apex_admin URL I am getting a blank page. Also, the script asked for a value--which was indication of an issue.
See results below--

Any help would be appreciated to help resolve the problem. Can the apxldimg.sql be run again at this point?
Thanks,

Hi,
thanks for the quick reply. I had copied all the apex41 files to my oracle_home in directory 'apex' and I was running the apxldimg.sql in that directory and gave no path. Should I instead, run the script in oracle_home directory and give path /apex? How exactly did you run it?
Thanks,
Pat

See: http://daust.blogspot.com/2006/03/where-are-images-of-application.html
The best practice is to access the repository through WebDAV as Dietmar explains, and to create your own folder(s) for custom scripts and images, rather than mixing stuff up with Oracle content in <tt>/i/</tt> that may need to be overwritten during an upgrade.

Images directory is expanded

When I open Dreamweaver MX my "images" directory is expanded.
If I collapse it, and then close Dreamweaver, it is expanded again
when I re-open Dreamweaver. This happens with one local site only.
I have eight other local sites that behave OK. How do I fix this
problem?

I finally found the answer. Open "Manage Sites" and select
the trouble site. Click the "Remove" button to remove the site from
Dreamweaver. Then create a new site (click New button) with the
same name and properties. The "images" directory will then behave
OK.

Dreamweaver cs4, site management does not recognize image directory

I have recently downloaded trial version. When I was trying to set up local site with site management tool, it somehow keep failing to recognize the image folder within. So I go to advance setting of edit and assign local root folder C:\favdoo\MyTheme\
then I try to assign Default image folder which IS in the MyTheme folder, it dow not show up in the browser and even if I manually type in, gives me error message "there are not image file". I have checked rebooted, clear cache, but still does not recognize image folder. ????? Can anyone please help? It drives me crazy before I even start using dreamweaver.

got it, needed to create images directory to associate with actual file......how I supposed to know that?

How Do I get icons image directory to work in a JAR file?

Yes, I must admit after going through the tutorial and other stuff I am stiil stumped
I have an application that uses the jlfgr icons for the toolbar, and it works fine as long as i actually run it from the directory that it is in.
I would like to put in into a jAr file, and be able to execute it from other places.
I have a Directory named PhoneBook
in that are the classes I use
AddressBook - the main class
PersonEntry - The 'data class'
and various other things like FileFilters.....
inside that directory there are two more:
images - contains all the icon images
Data - where the default 'database' entries are stored.
I use code like this:
     private void fillToolBar( JToolBar bar )
          Dummy = new JButton(new ImageIcon("images/New16.gif"));
          Dummy.setActionCommand("New");
          Dummy.addActionListener(this);
          Dummy.setToolTipText("New");
          bar.add( Dummy );
          // etc etc
to get all the icons into the toolbar
I have made a Jar file that has all the classes and all the directorys with the icons in it
and so the program runs, but does not get the icons for the toolbar, I just get a whole load of 'dud' buttons.....
AS this is the first time i've ever got the GUI to look right rather than just the code functioning properly
I'd like to get the whole thing in a working Jar file
So Could someone show me Step By Step, How I get my classes and images into a Jar file
so that i can from a different directory go
java - jar Phone.jar
and have the GUI come up with all the images, assuming I'm totally thickheaded when it comes to Jar files.?
I also can't get the images to show up if I merely run the 'program' from another directory than the one it is compiled in
I can get the program to run, just not access the images with something like
java -cp blah/blah/blah AddressBook
{the main class is AddressBook }
the data directory can be anywhere as I use a JFileChooser to allow the user to open and save desired files.
I really would appreciate some clear workable help. {though I'm running out of Duke Dollars...}

What you need is a correct path to the directory
inside of the jar. This can be accomplished by adding
a line to your main program like this:
URL
url=myProgram.class.getResource("images/New16.gif");
Dummy = new JButton(new ImageIcon(URL));
where myProgram.class is the name of the class
file that contain the main method.
Hope this helps....
;o)
PS: I don't want your dukes...I got them coming out of
my ears!
O.K, that works thank you.
I put something like:
for all the 'buttons' in the toolbar
URL url = null;
Class ThisClass = this.getClass();
url=ThisClass.getResource("images/New16.gif");
Dummy = new JButton(new ImageIcon(url));
Dummy.setActionCommand("New");
Dummy.addActionListener(this);
Dummy.setToolTipText("New Database");
bar.add( Dummy );
etc for all the rest of the 'buttons'
After Reading the API docs on URL's etc I'm still not sure as to why it works, but it does....
I am able now to place the class files in a jar along with the images and it all works fine
although now I don't quite follow all my code....................
I assume that
url=ThisClass.getResource("images/New16.gif");
returns some sort of 'relative url ' ???
Thanks for the help though.

How to store images or Folders in "/i/" (image directory) located in XDB

Database Version: Oracle Database 10g Express Edition Release 10.2.0.1.0 - Product
OS: Mac OS
Now my question is:

Please give me some hints about how to achieve this.
Thanks & Regards,

Hi Alex Nuijten,
Thanks for replying.
I know how to access "/i/" folder using FTP but I want to write file into specific directory under "/i/" directory, that too using my APEX application front-end.
(Like, how we upload a file into table in the same way i want to upload a file to specific directory under "/i/")
Thanks & Regards,
