| X's showing up instead of pics in featured homepage section |
|
Hi. I am seeing random X's instead of pictures every 9 out of 10 homepage featured items on the homepage.
I have checked the code & it all looks correct.
I have noticed this on other peoples sites as well.
Any suggestions??
I tried to delete the original ad & put another ad with the same picture & still see the X.
Thanks,
Kit |

| This issue I think discussed a lot here, try to submit an item with .gif image and see if it display normal on the homepage, if it is displayed then your gif2png executable file is working fine. |

I don't know if it is just a coincidence or not but when I try to upload a picture with a long file name like ( B.J. Surhoff - opps 1990 - Card #696 ) I get a box with a red x but if i delete that file on the listing page and shorten the file name to ( B.J. Surhoff -2 ) it will upload fine. I now get a picture instead of a box with a red x....
In my case at least the red x is caused by the file name on my hard drive being to long. Once I shorten it the picture uploads OK... |

Sorry it was not the length of the file name it looks like it was the # sign in my titles.
I have my site set for safe html..... Once I removed the # sign then the title length wasn't a problem... |

NO NO, it looks like I was wrong about the length of the title causing the file to upload as a red X.....
It was the Pound sign (#) doing it to my uploads. If I had the Pound sign in the title of my sports card it would not upload the file properly and I believe it may be because I have my system set to Safe HTML rather than All HTML |
