Problem Creating an Image Link within an html snippet?

Hi,
For some reason I have been unable to link to an image on my Mac by using <img src within an html snippet.
I have uploaded the photo to my server and created a link with <img src "http://www.domain.com/image.jpg" />.
However, when I try linking to the image like this - <img src "Users:Documents:Photos:image.jpg" />, when I click apply on the html snippet all I get is a blue dot with a question mark and I have checked that the image is in my Documents and then Photos folder and it is. When I link to it with the server the photo shows.
Any ideas as to what I am doing wrong?
I would appreciate some help, as I have tried various combinations to link and nothing seems to be working except linking directly from my server and I don't really want to do this at the moment.
Thanks

Thanks for that and I did use correct syntax in the html snippet - it was a typo here.
I did as you suggested and dragged the photo into the Safari browser, after placing the photo on the desktop and it gave me the file name and that showed as file:///Users/My username/Desktop/Image.jpg, so I tried this in my html snippet and did it as so:
It is still not working for some reason and when I click apply, the photo shows up as a blue square with a question mark in it, although I know the photo is there.
Why is this? I followed the path, yet when I link to the photo on the server with it works perfectly everytime.
Thanks

  • Problem creating several image maps (linking to different pdf files) RoboHelp 8

    Hi,
    I have a problem creating several image map hotspots (that link to different .pdf files), from the same image using RoboHelp 8 HTML (WebHelp project).
    After compiling, the first image map hotspot created, opens the .pdf file correctly.  Unfortunately, when clicking on the other image hotspots, I get an error " Cannot find file...<file path>... Make sure path or Internet address is correct".
    All the pdf documents are located in the same folder within the project.
    Can anyone help?

    Have you added the target files as baggage?

  • Why do image links in my HTML signature get turned into inline images?

    I have written a program to create HTML signature files for email programs at my workplace.
    The signature file uses URLs to images hosted on a server. This appears to work fine, but I've noticed that when I send an email from Icedove (Thunderbird rebadged for Debian), the image links automatically get turned into attachments. These are then visible as base64-encoded MIME blocks in the email source.
    I cannot find any option for altering this behaviour anywhere in the application, even in the Config Editor.
    Can anybody advise me how to change this behaviour? Thanks in advance.
    I am running Icedove v.17 for Debian 64 bit.

    By default Thunderbird attaches all images, even if the &lt;img&gt; element points to a remote resource. Most e-mail clients block remote content these days unless the user authorizes it (see [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/991448 this thread] for an in-depth discussion) due to potential privacy/tracking issues. Thus, the image your are adding as a remote resource may not display the first time the recipient opens the message.
    If you want to change your code respectively anyway, have a look at [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Creating_complex_mails_with_inline_images#Remote_images this article]. You'll have to add an attribute &lt;img '''moz-do-not-send="true"'''&gt; to the element which will Tell Thunderbird to ''not'' download the image from the server and embedding it into the message on sending.

    Hi,
    Could you try to set the log level ALL for com.sap.portal.fpn and its subtree (From log configurator service in Visual Administration)?
    Then see the log messages in the default.trc logs and possibly post them to this threads.

  • Creating an email link within a Muse page?

    I want to create an standalone (not within a contact form) email link in Muse. Do I simply highlight an email address within a text box and apply a hyperlink witht the corresponding email address ([email protected])? Or does it need to be a spearate element/text box to do so?
    Thanks, in advance.

    Hello Stephen,
    You can just highlight the email address and put the email address in the hyperlink field. It will hyperlink the email address and when user will click on it, it will automatically open their default e-mail client with an email having the mentioned email id in the "To" filed.

  • Some problems creating/saving images

    What I want to do is create an image from multiple sources (a composite of 3-4 .jpg files) and save it to a file. I wanted to start off simple. I tried to create a bufferedimage, load a single .jpg file into it, and then save it. All I get is a black .jpg in the end. Any ideas?
    public class buffTest {
         public static void main(String args[]){
              Image myImage;
              BufferedImage buffImage = new BufferedImage(100, 100, BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_RGB);

  • Can I use a graphic to link to an html snippet?

    I'm trying to embed a video that is hosted on vimeo, and that is pretty easy using Vimeo's embed tool or iWeb's HTML snippet tool and pasting the code.
    What I'd like to do is have a different graphic, like a logo become a live link for that embedded video.  Is that do-able?  If not, is it possible to use a different frame as the image for the link or at least size/edit the first thumbnail that ith html widget uses?
    As an aside, it would be great to constrain the frame size the video is playing in to cut off the bottom.

    Do you mean that you want to have a graphic as a hyperlink that opens the video in a new page or window?
    http://www.iwebformusicians.com/Website-Movie-Video/Click-To-Play.html
    You can change the frame height in the code but it will mean that part of the movie won't be seen....

  • Create e-mail link within an image

    I have an image that includes the contact e-mail address.  I'd like to make this an e-mail link.  It's situated in the corner of a larger image with other text, and would like to have just the address become the link, not the whole image. 
    I've tried a hotspot, with a link and then typed emailto:adress.  I thought I was on the right track, but when I preview it, it just pops up a new browser, but does not open up a new e-,mail.
    I'd also like to create my menu bar from text within an image (I'm creating in Fireworks first then importing CSS & Images).
    Would I then use the same method?
    Thanks.

  • Problem Creating Internal pdf Links In Preview

    I am trying to create internal links in a pdf file within Preview. When I "Set Destination" to a particular page within the file, the link always goes to the page after the one I set. The strange thing is that when I view the same file on a Windows PC it works right. Any ideas how to fix?

  • Problem creating an image from a remote url

    I am creating a servlet which does the following:
    1. retrieves an image from a remote url
    2. resizes the image
    3. sends the image to the client.
    The servlet works fine when I run it on my PC, but when I run it on the server, it doesn't. Here's the problematic code
        private Image getRemoteImage(String imageUrl) throws Exception {
            System.err.println("in getRemoteImage()");
            if (!imageUrl.startsWith("http://")) imageUrl = "http://" + imageUrl;
            URL u = new URL(imageUrl);
            System.err.println("imageUrl: " + imageUrl);
            HttpURLConnection huc = (HttpURLConnection) u.openConnection();
            huc.setRequestMethod("GET");
            System.err.println("connecting...");
            huc.connect();
            System.err.println("Getting DataInputStream...");
            DataInputStream in = new DataInputStream(u.openStream());
            //DataInputStream in = new DataInputStream(huc.getInputStream());
            System.err.println("...got");
            int numBytes = huc.getContentLength(); //1063
            System.err.println("numBytes: " + numBytes);
            byte[] imageBytes = new byte[numBytes];
            System.err.println("reading fully...");
            in.readFully(imageBytes);
            System.err.println("...read");
            in.close();
            System.err.println("creating imageIcon");
            ImageIcon imageIcon = new ImageIcon(imageBytes);  //   <-- problem here
            System.err.println("** THIS LINE IS NOT REACHED **");
            System.err.println("creating image");
            Image image = imageIcon.getImage();
            System.err.println("returning image");
            return image;
        }When I access the servlet with FF, the browser reports:
    The image �<my servlet url>� cannot be displayed, because it contains errors.
    When I access the servlet with IE, I get:

    I've tried that (along with all other kinds of techniques I never knew existed). I think it might be a problem with the Tomcat setup - it may need to run headless (sounds a bit severe!...).

    External links are links which goes outside your web container root.
    Imagine you're sitting in http://example.com/webapp/page.jsf, then the webroot is http://example.com/webapp.
    If you specify a link without a protocol (http, https, ftp, file, etc), then the client will always assume that you're linking to a resource in your web container. So when page.jsf links to a resource called "www.google.com", without the protocol, then the client will assume that you're referring to http://example.com/webapp/www.google.com. If you prefix it with a valid protocol, e.g. "http://www.google.com", then the client will assume that you're referring to http://www.google.com.
    After all .. In your case this is not applicable. You're using commandlinks instead of outputlinks. Why are you asking this? Which problems are you occurring? Do you want to submit to an external URL or so?

  • Creating a pdf link instead of html

    If you keep a backup copy of the domain file that you use to create your website on an external volume like a flash drive or external HD that's all you need to assure you will be able to recreate the website in case the hosting server crashes or your Mac crashes.
    The file is named Domain.sites and is located in your Users/Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder. That's the key item for your website.

  • Creating an Attachment Link Within a Form

    I have created a filllable form and want to create a section where attachments can be added to the form, can I get some help on how to make this happen.  Thanks!

    Unfortunately, Reader cannot be used to add file attachments unless the PDF in question has been given the appropriate usage rights. Unfortunately again, although Acrobat can be used to give some usage rights, this isn't one of them. Adobe does sell a server-based product named LiveCycle Reader Extensions than will give the file attachment right to PDFs.
    Alternatively, you can use the third-party service provided by FormRouter:http://www.formrouter.com/pdf/readerextensions.htm
    They will, for a fee, enable individual documents.
