Caches With Html Images Are Broken


NotThePainter

Recommended Posts

Most of my hides have tables with images in them. I do the HTML by hand. Over the past few days, my images have appeared sporadically. I just looked into it now. Check out this cache: Not The Muse

 

When I do a "View Source" from my browser, I don see any mention of my tables at all, they are just gone. But it may work for you. A refresh sometimes shows the images, sometimes they, and the HTML to draw them, is gone.

 

Now look at another cache, The Mystery of Susan Walker, like the above cache the tables are gone, except for one. I see this HTML fragment in the View Source output

 

<a href="http://www.customline.com/geocache/SusanWalker/SusanWalkerHi.jpg"></a>

 

Now that's strange, that's only part of the HTML I typed.

 

If I go to edit the cache listing, the HTML is fine.

 

I think an optimizer is going overboard!

 

Note, these caches (and my others) all worked fine until a couple of days ago.

 

Thanks for looking into this.

I just realized I may not been explicit enough. Images aren't broken, the use of tables that have images is broken. I've used code like this:

 

<p>
<table align="right">
<tr>
<td width="10"> </td>
<td><img align="right" hspace="0" vspace="00" src=
"http://img.Groundspeak.com/cache/log/b2778d98-697c-4614-abe7-9c9689a82087.jpg"
    width="200" height="200" border="0"></td></tr>
<tr>
</table>When you go to the listed coordinates you will find a

you should also always download the picture before putting it up. running it off thier server is just stealing bandwidth (a sure fire way to piss of a webmaster) and there for you are at the mercy of them not changing the location of the image or even deleting it

Are you referring to customline.com?

 

I own customline.com so I'm ok with the bandwidth.

 

Curiously, my local approver has requested that my future caches be hosted on Groundspeak's servers, not my servers. I'm not sure why but sure, I've upload images (via Note logs) when creating hides.

 

The problem isn't that the customline.com image has moved, the problem is that Groundspeak has not put out the correct HTML.
