use the full URI to the image:
<img src="http:// www. yourdomain.com/images/g2h1.gif" width="200" height="95">
the example above is broke for display purposes, dont copy and paste it.
Thanx – and a stupid question: on a local installation I have tried:
<img src=”http://localhost/wordpress/images/g2h1.gif” width=”200″ height=”95″>
…but no go?
and a stupid answer — do you really care if the image displays in a local installation?
is localhost defined?
does http:// localhost/wordpress actually bring up the site??
fight the battles that matter, in other words 🙂 Unless you absolutely need to see the images, I wouldnt worry too much.
It does bring up the site.
“do you really care if the image displays in a local installation?” well, yes I’m trying stuff for a customer – using cms
should have read:

“do you really care if the image displays in a local installation?” well, yes I’m trying stuff for a customer – I’m using WP as cms and I want to see it all working before uploading.
Have just resolved it myself:
U have to write the whole path, eg.: <img src=”http://localhost/wordpress/wp-content/themes/vesuvius/images/g2h1.gif” width=”200″ height=”95″>
the same goes for uploaded sites…
i said that 🙂 glad you got it sorted 🙂
Yes but I didn’t assume the path should include the particular theme folder etc.
Any way thanks for the input! And by the way any ideas on a another problem I have run into: “Partly disappearing menu/leftbar.php when link is clicked” listed under “WordPress Support » How-To and Troubleshooting” ?
Cheers
full URL to the image; if its in a directory that’s part of the URL, and your welcome 🙂
