Question Problem with web template

I started using a template and suddenly the page won't display the pics anymore. I can preview it locally and it works but when I place the template on the server it doesn't display the pictures. Any suggestions.

Are the images on the server?
If so you'll need to check the path of the images. Or <base href=> if you're using it.

The images are on the server. If I convert the template to html it works just fine. I am also using a style sheet with it. and for some reason it doesn't keep the font or outlines around my tables. Sorry, but I am new to this.

What exactly are you trying to do? What is IT? What are you converting it from?

I guess I wasn't quite clear on that. When it uses the file extension .dwt it doesn't load the graphics. When I use .htm or .html it works just fine.

.dwt is a dreamweaver template. You should only use that when you're creating a new page. Open the template and then "save as" yourpagename.htm (or html, your choice).
You should use .htm, or .html to display the pages porperly on your site (as you've found).

I am viewing the pages as .htm or .html but since the template has header with graphics it doesn't show up correctly when I apply it to the other pages. Let me provide you with the url.

http://home.comcast.net/~caquiroga/

i have gone through your site and found out the problem..

Your images are not linked properly. Let me make it clear..
i'll give you an example.
The very first image on the top left is linked this way.
http://home.comcast.net/Chiefs_copy.gif
What you are now doing is pointing to a picture on the site http://home.comcast.net which surely doesn't exist there, because it only exists in your directory.
So what you are forgetting to add is your member name. I will now add the correct way to link the images to make it work

http://home.comcast.net/~caquiroga/Chiefs_copy.gif

Now, you will notice that i added your member name to the link "~caquiroga". Now the link points to the right place on the server.

So what you have to do is change the links of every image to look like the link above.

Hope you got me clear.

Mhammadd, that was an excellent reply to the question.
I guess it must of worked for him because the page now displays well. It would be nice if people would
post the results and maybe even a thank you when
they have been helped. Oh well,

thanks,
robert

Thanks for the answer mhammadd. It worked! Now I need to figure out how to setup DW so it will do this automatically if possible now that I'm going through my entire site. Hopefully this will keep Robert quiet.
