> Robert, how did you see my directories?
I can not see your directories directly (FTP requires userid and password).
What I did was look at the source code for your index.html page (using
FireFox). I saw that smrr.html was in the same directory and look at the
source of it. This gave me the location of the image smrr.gif. I then entered
http://home.ca.rr.com/rosenfeld/smrr.gif which should have displayed the image
in FF. What I got was an error message that said the gif format was bad. The
usual cause of that is uploading the image as a text file instead of a binary
file.

FTP requires a userid and password otherwise anyone could change your web site
which would not be good. HTTP access usually does not require a userid and
password so anyone can look at your web site. It is possible to password
protect a web site so only those that know the password can look at it.
