Frames to no frames website

Hi,
I have a website that uses frames with a link to some internal pages that don’t use frames.
The website functions perfectly when it is on my hard drive but when I put it on the server and click on the html links they don’t load. But when I hit the back button, and click on the link again it loads no problem.

Any ideas on this one? I have the site temporarily on another website for testing purposes. Here is the link to start from frames to the pages I am talking about.

<snip>

Note: this starting page does not use frames but most of the rest of the site does.

Click on the “Designer Films” link and it loads the first page of the non frame pages with no problem.

Next click the “Timeless collection” link. The page loads ok but I can’t get the photo to show.

Next click the “Gentle Diffusions” link and it goes no where. Click the back button, click on “Gentle Diffusions” again and although it seems to struggle a bit it loads.

Any assistance appreciated.

Sincerely,

Daniel Hallas

File names are case sensitive on your web server: colors2.JPG vs colors2.jpg. Just rename the src attribute of the image and it'll show.

Hi Papabaer,

My most sincere apologies for the breach of conduct, I know to keep things generic from using other forums and I think I just forgot.

I did get the case sensitive part of the problem solved from the suggestion of Purple Martin (thank you Purple Martin for your response).

The other part of the problem (the need to reload the page to get it to show) was due to my recent conversion to two hard drives whence I picked up some sort of glitch that caused a delay when viewing this specific website. That is to say the problem did not exist for others.

I am relatively new to WebPages construction and from what I know I can not put a new site up and test it without a DNS (or name server) pointing to the site. That would be the reason I put it onto the Raymond's site, so I could test it first before changing the name server.

In this particular case had I not accidentally forgotten about the links to affiliated or personal sites rule (which I know is an essential rule), and just described my “delay” problem I would seriously delayed the discovery that there was no “delay” problem. It only existed on MY hard drive.

So this time it worked out for the best and I appreciate you patience. I also appreciate your work in moderating this forum and all of those who so generously give their time to help others. To me you are all Saints!

Thanks again.
Sincerely,
DanielLee
