stUMpy Obsessive-Compulsive (I) Inmate From: Canada Insane since: Jul 2002	posted 07-19-2002 03:39 I am currently trying to build a simple photogallery type of site to show off some stuff. I am hand coding( uh oh) everything. I have currently 1 image on the site but I do not see it. Others do. My browser is IE 5.5 When I view the source from the web it contains a ! in the img src to make MY browser ignore the tag. However, several other people have seen the banner and it is fine. At least one browser was 5.5 also. I have also deleted IE temp files thinking the site cached somewhere. Anyone have an idea why I can't see my site from my comp? Is the code messed up or browser settings?
