Something in correct with Image loading....

Question

Hi All,
I have created a very simple form to load image into a form.
Using forms 10g dev suite on win XP.
I load two images for two image items.
for IMAGE1 I have written the below code in its when-image-pressed trigger and this Image loading WORKS FILE...
i get the desired image loaded
DECLARE
     tiff_image_dir VARCHAR2(80) := 'C:\DevSuiteHome_1\forms\111.gif';
     photo_filename VARCHAR2(80);
BEGIN
     :System.Message_Level := '25';
     photo_filename := tiff_image_dir ;
     READ_IMAGE_FILE(photo_filename, 'GIF', 'emp.my_test_button');
     READ_IMAGE_FILE(photo_filename, 'GIF', 'emp.my_test_button');
     IF NOT FORM_SUCCESS THEN MESSAGE('This employee does not have a photo on file.');END IF;
     :SYSTEM.MESSAGE_LEVEL := '0';
     END;
the problem is with Image two...it laods some incorrect image .....as i am trying to USE JAR file
the trigger code is below
DECLARE
     photo_filename VARCHAR2(80);
BEGIN
     :System.Message_Level := '25';
     READ_IMAGE_FILE('111.gif', 'URL', 'emp.image_item');
     IF NOT FORM_SUCCESS THEN MESSAGE('This employee does not have a photo on file.');END IF;
     :SYSTEM.MESSAGE_LEVEL := '0';
END;
below is the entry for my formsweb.cfg
I have placed my
[my_app]
width=675
height=480
separateFrame=false
splashScreen=no
lookAndFeel=oracle
colorScheme=blue
background=/forms/formsdemo/images/blue.gif
logo=/forms/formsdemo/images/bannerlogo.gif
baseHTMLjinitiator=demobasejini.html
baseHTMLjpi=demobase.htm
baseHTML=demobase.html
baseHTMLie=demobaseie.html
envFile=formsdemo.env
archive_jini=frmall_jinit.jar,AppIcons.jar
#archive=frmall_jinit.jar
pageTitle=Oracle Forms - My Application
form=my_test_button.fmx
imagebase=codebase
userid=scott1/tiger@ora11g
My classpath entry in ENV file is
CLASSPATH=C:\DevSuiteHome_1\jlib\debugger.jar;C:\DevSuiteHome_1\forms\demos\my_app\AppIcons.jar;C:\DevSuiteHome_1\forms\demos\jars\uploadserver.jar;C:\DevSuiteHome_1\forms\demos\jars\demowebserviceclientside.jar;C:\DevSuiteHome_1\jdk\jre\lib\rt.jar;C:\DevSuiteHome_1\forms\demos\jars\javamailintegration.jar;C:\DevSuiteHome_1\forms\demos\jars\mail.jar;C:\DevSuiteHome_1\forms\demos\jars\activation.jar
What mistake am i doing?

Slava ,Magoo and S@r@h....
I have done the following,still no respite..
step 1) Create the jar file
C:\myapp>jar cvf AppIcons.jar *.gif
added manifest
adding: 111.GIF(in = 28895) (out= 28675)(deflated 0%)
adding: 222.GIF(in = 28895) (out= 28675)(deflated 0%)
adding: name_gif.GIF(in = 28903) (out= 28681)(deflated 0%)
step 2) move the AppIcons.jar in the ClassPATH specified by env file(envFile=formsdemo.env)
in my case the classpath looks like below
and I have moved the AppIcons.jar to C:\DevSuiteHome_1\forms\demos\my_app
CLASSPATH=C:\DevSuiteHome_1\jlib\debugger.jar;C:\DevSuiteHome_1\forms\demos\my_app\AppIcons.jar;C:\DevSuiteHome_1\forms\demos\jars\uploadserver.jar;C:\DevSuiteHome_1\forms\demos\jars\demowebserviceclientside.jar;C:\DevSuiteHome_1\jdk\jre\lib\rt.jar;C:\DevSuiteHome_1\forms\demos\jars\javamailintegration.jar;C:\DevSuiteHome_1\forms\demos\jars\mail.jar;C:\DevSuiteHome_1\forms\demos\jars\activation.jar
step 3) shutdown and restart the OC4J
To Answer Slava's question:
2. Check Jinitiator console and see if AppIcons.jar is loaded.
You should see :
Loading http://host:port/forms/java/AppIcons.jar from JAR cache
YES its loading prefectly.
To answer Magoo's questions:
q)What is the incorrect image look like? Somehting like a broken link image?
Yes,the image is a small page icon which is broken like a torn page(and has three small solid figures in it)
q)Do you get there a message like Unable to load image 111.gif for Image Item ?
No I do not get any error message.
What next ?
