Hi Peter,

I understand that you are unable to view the images on
your HTML page
http://website.lineone.net/~peter.bond/page2.htm created
using Microsoft Word.

I need to inform you that word is a word processing
application used to create documents, it is just has an
added feature wherein you can convert your document files
(.DOC) into HTML pages.

In the process of conversion Word hard codes the image
path found on your local hard disk (C:\Documents and
Settings\PeterW.Bond\MyDocuments\MyWebPage\page2_f iles\ima
ge004.jpg). This is the reason you are able to view
images locally on your system and not on the Internet
when uploaded. You will have to manually change your
image paths to
(http://website.lineone.net/~peter.bond/page2_files/image0
04.jpg) and things will get straight.

I would recommend that you use HTML editing softwares
like Microsoft Frontpage to create HTML pages.

Thanks.
Sandy.
