Broken image link

Postby michi » Tue Mar 30, 2010 4:50 am

Having just posted my first blog entry, I noticed that all the posts have a broken image link in the sub-heading. James, would you take a look? You can find one example of this here.

Cheers,

Michi.

Here is a screen shot of the broken image:

I'm seeing this with Safari 4.0.5 on OS X, with Safari on my iPhone, and with IE 8.0.6001 on Windows XP.

ah yes,

i get the alt text 'permanent link' come up there and if i click it, i get a different version of the page: blog.php?b=3 where the image shows up as normal. perhaps alt text is not fully supported by safari for mac?

No, that's not the problem. The same thing happens with IE.

Here is the link target when viewing the version that works (with the URL http://djembefola.com/board/blog.php?b=3):

Code: Select all
src="styles/prosilver/imageset/icon_post_target.gif"

The link target is relative to /board.

When viewing the version that's broken (with the URL http://djembefola.com/board/blog/James/sibo_bangoura_gig_b-3.html), the link target is the same, but the page is two levels down in the directory tree. So, instead, it should be

Code: Select all
src="../../styles/prosilver/imageset/icon_post_target.gif"

Either that, or add a symbolic link to each user's blog directory:

Code: Select all
styles -> ../../styles

Cheers,

Michi.

I'm going to upgrade the forum soon so I can get a fresh version of this mod-blog. There seems to be a couple of bugs in the version we're running...
