The location where the browser looks for an image depends on how the image is being displayed and what its specified path is:
- Absolute path (i.e. http://www.xyz.com/images/myimage.gif) : The browser looks at the specified location.
- Relative path (i.e. images/myimage.gif) : This is relative to the location of the page (which would be default.aspx)
- Relative path in CSS (i.e. background-image: url(myimage.gif)) : This is relative to the location of the CSS file where the image is referenced
Do you see a broken image icon? If so, you can right-click it and obtain the location where the browser is trying to find the image.
A few other ways to determine where the browser is expecting to find the image:
- In FireFox, select Tools > Page Info - Media. Look for the image name in the list and you will see the path the browser is using.
- Using IE or FireFox you can use the add-on developer toolbar (Google for it) to examine properties for all elements of the page. View the properties of the image to find its path.
- Look at your server log and search for the image file name. The log entry will contain the path where the image was expected.
HTH.
