hi there

firstly i dont think any1 shud be worried about posting noobie questions - even the administrators at one point had 1 posts and also knew nothing about html and the such forth.

anyway (going off topic!) the answer to you problem is so-

in the example u gave
you used a backslash. thats the problem. change them to a forward slash and walla! problem solved.

eg

Code: Select all

<img src="c:/documents and settings/myname/my documents/mypictues\name of picture.jpg>

The reason you had the problem was because \'s are used for files wheras /'s are used for webpages. not sure why there should be any diff but who really cares. tht shud work 4 u in any case
