don't i understand xoops ?

Hi all.

I recently downloaded and installed XOOPS and a 'block example' that allowed me to set some buttons as links. The problem is that i can't see the buttons, only the text set as 'alt'. I explain :

RSS

PDAs


Powered by:

Ubuntu


no matter how i type the 'img src' tag, i always get RSS, PDAs and Ubuntu in my block, not the buttons.

Maybe it's an image problem because i can't see neither the banners in my site. Nor the ones by default nor the ones i want to set up.

I'm using XOOPS 2.0.14.

Thnx for your help.

Sighter

your are wrong.

Go absolute, define your path as

div>Powered by:<br /><div align="center">
<a href="http://www.ubuntulinux.org/" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.ubuntulinux.org/images/buttons/ubunto.png" alt="Ubuntu" title="Powered by Ubuntu Linux" border="0" />a><br />

Ubuntulinux is not my server !! ^^ I have buttons on my server and links are external ones. Images shown on 'img src' tag are the button ones in my server.

Thnx for the reply anyway !!

P.S I'm trying simply to add another extra image by myself via 'img src' tag but it's not shown :S. I'm thinking on reading an HTML Basic Guide :S:S

OK, another episode from X-Files :



It wordks perfectly.



It doesn't work at all.

I checked rights on the two directories and are exactly the same: 777. Why does XOOPS read without problems on modules directory but not in the images one ?

try removing the first / from the url!
if you put it like that it will assume as the root folder from whatever location it is running the code! for example if you have this link somewhere in your news module, it will translate the relative pathe to /modules/news/images/sfn_logo4.jpg

now without the /


it will look directly to the normal root folder of your website, no matter where you are calling it from, and in the folder /images.

It should be working with the absolute path though! have you tried updating the system module? perhaps try changing the name of the folder images in root or even creating a new one! Weird problems need weird solutions!!!

As u can see, i tried removing the slash but i didn't suceed. I got it typing this strange path. I am already seeing that XOOPS consists on rewrite things to make 'em run. Nobody said it would be easy. I am fighting against tinycontent right now, i can't edit content because i don't have any button to save changes, Did you say the 'url mess' was weird ?.
