Hi all,

I seem to be having a problem using my $promo in admin to display banner ads, I have uploads the banner to my images folder, I have also tried uploading them to aministration/images. I have used the code below to pull out the banner but nothing

I have tried:

<img src="administration/images/Featured.gif" width="468px" height="60px"/>
<img src="/images/Featured.gif" width="468px" height="60px"/>

But nothing, am I missing something. not sure why it should not work ????

Any thoughts ?

Thanks - Jason

Have you checked that an image appears when you put this in your browser

http://www.yourdomain.com/images/Featured.gif

jason1971 + · 03-23-2010, 08:39 AM

Yes because I have used an image which is already used elsewhere on the website

is your site diy-classifieds?
Going though your older posts, although you sig says you are using TemplateCodes and you site looks far from that.
http://yourdomain/images/featured.gif does not exist.

Which category have you added this to? That way we can see what is shown in the html.

<img src="http://www.mysite.com/images/Featured.gif" width="468px" height="60px"/>
