I hate dreamweaver, I really do.

I just finished spending 8 hours working on a web page - made an image
directory for all of the rollovers and image slices. Looks great,
works great. Now, I go to transfer it to my FTP site - but first, I
make sure it works on another computer - transfer everything to my A:
drive - still works. Now on another computer - NONE of the graphics
come up!!!! NONE OF THEM~!!!!!!
I thought that dreamweaver created paths that were source accessible -
meaning, even though they came from C:/here/my/web/pages/images - I
could transfer them anywhere after and they would still read from the
source! I don't know what to do at this point...

Any help?!?!?!?!

Acceptance is the first stage on the road to recovery.

Now, what you do next is very important. Your choices are:
o Dump the false god that is wysiwig
o Try and fix it so it works till the next issue shows up

Any help?!?!?!?!

What do you think? This is an HTML group.

Although, I do wish you the best of luck.

Look at the .html file that the images should appear on. It probably
has the paths to the images might be absolute instead of relative to the
..html document. This means that if the directory structure on the new
computer isn't exactly the same, the images won't show up. For
instance, if in Dreamweaver you set the local site root to:

c:\wwwroot\mysite

And them moved to another computer and put them into:

c:\website\mine

then the file might be looking for them at c:\wwwroot\mysite. It's
worth a try. To fix it, just make the path relative (something like
.../images/thispic.jpg or thispic.jpg insteand of
/wwwroot/mysite/images/thispic.jpg). If that's not the problem, then
most likely you didn't actually move everything.

o Dump the false god that is wysiwig

It is not a wysiwyg issue. It is a path issue and how he has the
settings.

It is a setting. Search the help for Site Root-relative paths you it
will head you in the right direction.
