Re: Some jpg's won't display

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

:) Tried reassociation too - no luck. Download file - looks fine :( - One
other thing - in investigating the properties of the images - all of those
that won't display - in the advanced summary area show the brand of the
camera, the format, the date picture taken and a bunch of other stuff. Other
pix that were taken with digital cameras just show image size and type, etc.
Just possible that the camera puts something in the file that causes a
problem?

Still strange thought that I can view them fine on my local machine, either
direct from the cd or copied to HD. If I upload and provide link and click
link - pix displays. But try to display in a javascript slideshow - nada.

One thing I haven't tried - embed the image directly into the web page and
see if it shows. If it does - maybe the java interaction on the web is the
issue - because it displays fine locally.

Frustrating!

Doncha just LOVE computers on some days??? :)
