I changed my dailyindex for the first time. AND it won't show any of the graphics now. I can't find anything wrong. All the images are in the images file. I can look at the new page in the FTP files and it's all there. And I've done a few Full Updates. But the "live" page has no graphic files on it. (Not even my background.)

HELP!

What's wrong?

Ah, yes. Main page has images on it, daily pages do not. I know this problem well.

The problem is your <IMG> tags. The SRC attribute needs to point to a more absolute URL. For example, instead of:

<IMG SRC="images/blah.gif">

you would put:

<IMG SRC="/images/blah.gif">

The slash before "images" is important, since the daily pages are not being served from the same directory as the main page. (/public_html/d/ rather that /public_html/)

Hope this helps.
