I changed it to post_img.url but i assume thats a different way of doing the same thing.
1.The html source gives the image location as "http://www.mysite.net/ content/imgs/newMessage.jpg" 2. I am using a RequestContext. Its an apache server and these are the related directives: <LocationMatch "\.(jpg|gif|png|css)$"> SetHandler None </LocationMatch> <Directory "/home/mysite/content/imgs"> allow from all order allow,deny SetHandler None Alias /imgs/ "/home/mysite/content/imgs/" Andrew On 23 Aug, 17:18, "J.
