Check the
following:
| Line feeds |
Line feeds may followed by this image link:
<IMG SRC="/icons/dotclear.gif" height=1 width=30>. It's only
purpose is to display blank space, in this case 30 pixels long, 1 pixel high.
It has also been used before "One typical error" above. If your page has
"dotclear.gif", then the blank space will not be displayed. Instead,
the browser may show a funny sign to indicate that an image is missing. Make
sure your translation has: "/icons/dotclear.gif" |
| The colored line |
There are two occurrences of the colored
line on overview.html. Here's a shorter example:
. The code to display this
line contains this section: <IMG SRC="/icons/line_4.gif" . Make
sure /icons/ is included in the line above, or you might get that
funny sign instead. |
| The logo at the bottom |
The logo is displayed by this code: <A
HREF="/index.html"><IMG SRC="/img/logo-tiny.gif" WIDTH="45"
HEIGHT="46"></A>. Make sure your link points to
/img/logo-tiny.gif, and not elsewhere. The logo-tiny.gif file
at /icons/ must not be used! |
Hint: If you have these images on your
disk, you will be able to see how they work on the page with your browser.
If you're storing the page at
C:\ENGLISH\GENERAL\ as recommended, and have already retrieved the
images as explained at the
Internet Explorer page. Then, copy these three images over here:
c:\icons\dotclear.gif
c:\icons\line_4.gif
c:\img\logo-tiny.gif
Now, when you view your translated page with
Internet Explorer, the lines, the logo, and the paragraphs will display just
fine.
If you don't know how to copy images
If you're using Internet Explorer, have retrieved
the web page with images as explained
here, and do not already have these directories on your
disk:
-
View the page you have saved on your disk with
images using Internet Explorer.
-
Right-click at the logo, and select "Save picture
as". Select the drive in which you have your translation, then right
click on the white window showing all the directories. Select "New
folder," and name it img. Save the image in this directory using
its correct name (logo-tiny.gif). Make sure the name uses lower characters
only. Case matters in web pages!
-
Dealing with the two other
images:
-
If you do not have an c:\icons directory,
do this in DOS using this command: mkdir
c:\icons
-
Click at the Windows Start-button, select
Search, set it to search on the drive where you stored overview.html
with images, and enter line_4.gif by the Name: prompt. If you have
retrieved the image file, it will appear on your hit
list.
-
Point at the image with your mouse, click the
right mouse button, and select Open from the list. This will open
the image in an application that will allow it to save the image at
c:\icons
-
Now, search for dotclear.gif, and save this at
c:\icons as well.
