Display Image from Path

[nudma]

Hi!!! I am trying to display image from C and D drive using following code. The code is very simple. Here it is:

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Response.Write ("<table border='1'>");
Response.Write ("<tr>");
Response.Write ("<td><img src='D:\at.jpg'></td>");
Response.Write ("<td><img src='C:\try.jpg'></td>") ;
Response.Write ("</tr>" );
Response.Write("</table>");
}

I neither get image on page nor error message. How could i resolve it?Please guide me...

Hi, this won't work since the client doesn't know anything about files on the servers disk. What you have to do is to put an URL into the src-tag (e.g. http://myserver.com/images/at.jpg). I suggest to create an image folder within your ASP.NET Website (name it images), then add all images you want to display to this folder and replace the value in the img-src tag with 'images/at.jpg' or 'images/try.jpg'. Let me know if this helps you. Regards Sebastian

I assign image path to some string variable like this:

string path = "C:\at.jpg";

and apply this:

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Response.Write(@"<table border='1'>");
Response.Write(@"<tr>");
Response.Write(@"<td><img src=path></td>");
Response.Write(@"<td><img src='D:\try.jpg'></td>");
Response.Write(@"</tr>");
Response.Write(@"</table>");
}

Then it does not display image neither it shows any error message. Why so?Please help..

As i mentioned in the post before do the following: 1. create a folder called images in your Application folder (where your website is) 2. copy the try.jpg to this folder 3. rewrite your code to this:

Reponse.Write(@"<td><img src='images\try.jpg'></td>");

The browser (client side) does not provide an error when it couldn't find the image file.

Well than just do that: string sImage = "images/try.jpg"; ... ... Response.Write(@"<td><img src='" + sImage + "'></td>");
