Correcting Image Codes

Image at the left shows picture property
on Norwegian language version of Internet Explorer.
Image's URL marked off

If you save the source page correctly,
then correcting images will usually not be needed.
If you forgot it, read these hints

  1. Some pages use an invicible image file called dotclear.gif. in the page's html source:
    FrontPage : click at the HTML tab at the bottom of the page to open.
    Composer : click at the <HTML> Source tab at the bottom of the page to open.
    Dreamweaver : click at the Code tab at the bottom of the page to open.

    Correct fast by searching for src="dotclear.gif" and replace by src="/icons/dotclear.gif"

  2. Fix the web addresses of some other images frequently found in our pages in the same way:
    1. search for src="line_4.gif", replace by src="/icons/line_4.gif"
    2. search for src="logo-tiny.gif", replace by src="/icons/logo-tiny.gif"
  3. Other missing images: First, find the image's file name by viewing the English language page that you translated in your browser. Usually, you can get it by right-clicking the image, and then select the image properties display. Example:
    1. You are translating http://www.kidlink.org/kie/nls/english/response/teachers.html. You view it with Internet Explorer, and discover some red crosses indicating that images are missing.
    2. Click at the image with the right mouse button, and select "Properties" (see illustration at the top of the page). By "Address (URL):", you will find the full web address to the image. Let us assume that clicked on the image called "teachers.jpg".
    3. Make a note about where in your text the red cross is positioned.
    4. Locate the missing image on the source page on the web. Important: Use the web version. Do not view the copy you stored on your disk!
    5. Click at the image with the right mouse button (or lower, on a laptop), and select "Properties" to find the full web address to the image.
    6. Mark and copy this address
    7. Go to the html editor, open the page's source (see 1 above), search for "teachers.jpg", and replace the image's address with the correct address (the full web address that you just copied)
