hi everyone,
I'm building a site for my client using Drupal 4.3.0 (first time using Drupal). I'm very, very impressed with Drupal so far, and most of the problems have been resolvable without too many headaches.
But I'm have been having a problem with displaying images now.. which is pretty important for the site. The <img src = ""> doesn't display any images in any of the nodes (with relative and absolute addressing.)
The funny thing is that if I type the absolute address http://mysite/folder/folder/pic.jpg in the URL, the image shows up--loud and clear. However, the exact same address in the <img src=""> command doesn't work. So if it doesn't work when I call it through Drupal.. obviously it's either a problem with one of my drupal settings or a problem with the drupal 4.3.0 itself..
In terms of the settings: I enabled all the filters, including the image filter from installing the image module. (the only filter disabled is "rewrite old urls" but that's because my .htaccess can't overwrite the php config of the webhosting company. But that's another story...)
Are there any other filters or settings related to this problem that I should check/enable? I read 2 things:
1. The base url may have a role to play: but I don't see how. Drupal's working beautifully for everything else, including links.. except for images. If I know my web stuff correctly, you should be able to call any image from anywhere by providing the right address.
