Summary: Image files never displayed

Initial Comment:
LXR v0.9.8

Graphic file cannot be displayed because synthesized URL is a query for LXR to process a source file instead of a simple file path.

Proposed patch for Common.pm:

-316,321 110307 (replace lines 316 to 321 with:)
        &$outfun("<ul><table><tr><th valign=\"center\"><b>Image: </b></th></tr>\n");
        &$outfun("<tr><td>");
        &$outfun("<img src=\"$config->{virtroot}"
              . $pathname
              . "\" border=\"0\""
              . " alt=\"$pathname cannot be displayed by this browser\">\n");
        &$outfun("</td></tr></table></ul>");
--------------- end of patch -----------------

Message:
The proposed patch does not solve the problem: LXR's DocumentRoot points to
the directory where the scripts are stored, NOT to the source tree.
Consequently, <img src=...> cannot serve the graphic file.
For the plain files case, one can create a symbolic link to the source
tree in the LXR directory and access the file the file through this link.
The by-pass link is configured in lxr.conf.
For the SCM cases, further thought is needed.

Message:
This has now been fixed in CVS.

If you can install the new version and check that it solves your
problem, then it would be very useful.

Thanks for reporting this defect and helping to make LXR better.
