[phpesp-dev] Graphic (Gif) files never display...

[Thomas H. <th...@ga...>]

  Hi all,

I installed v1.4 a few days ago and am very impressed with it. I've only 
experienced one problem and despite how simple this problem seems to be, 
I cannot, cannot, cannot solve it. OK, here it is - I can't get any of 
the graphics (the Gifs in the 'images' directory) to display.

None of the tabs in the Survey Design or management interface appear, in 
fact at no time in the app's operation do I see a single graphic display.

I'm tempted to just say I've just messed up the statement pathing of the 
/images directory in phpESP.ini, but here's the bizarre part - Say I go 
to the 'View Survey Results' part of the app, hoping to see the neat 
blue bars stretching across the page (but of course, I don't). If I look 
at the generated html of the page I see the code for the 'blue bar' 
looks something like this:

<img src="www.myhost.com/~thebert/cm/images/hbar_l.gif" height=9 width=4>
<img src="www.myhost.com/~thebert/cm/images/hbar.gif" height=9 width=22>
<img src="www.myhost.com/~thebert/cm/images/hbar_r.gif" height=9 width=4>

But nothing's (no graphics are) displayed in either browser I try (Mozilla does at least show little outlines where the 
graphics should appear). And here's the part that really makes me crazy: If I copy just the path info from this file, 

i.e.   www.myhost.com/~thebert/cm/images/hbar_l.gif

and paste it directly into a new browser window, the beautiful little blue bar endcap appears.

I do not  understand. I thought I understood most of what makes browsers and html work. I obviously am missing something. Please group, give 
me a thought or two on where I've gone wrong. 

Thanks for listening, I feel better now.
