Is the problem occurring only on sites you create or in any website. If it is only your creation then we need to see code...

You have two instances of bold tag left in wrong places see code bellow.
<DIV style="LEFT: 30px; POSITION: relative; TOP: 65px; visibility: visible;" id="buttonUp"><A 
onmouseover=javascript<b></b>:scrollUp() onmouseout=stopScroll() 
href=#><IMG src="http://romboy.oxyhost.com/up.gif" width=13 
height=13 border=0></A> </DIV>
<DIV style="LEFT: 30px; POSITION: relative; TOP: 290px" id="buttonDown"><A 
onmouseover=javascript<b></b>:scrollDown() onmouseout=stopScroll() 
href="#"><IMG src="http://romboy.oxyhost.com/down.gif" width=13 
height=13 border=0></A> </DIV>
As for the JPGs I do not see problems there. Maybe you misspelled image name, file extension or made mistake with actual path. Also I see you are using absolute path to the documents like in this case
HTML and CSS Syntax (Toggle Plain Text)
  1. <img src="C:\Users\SonnyDajAlexa\Desktop\test\smiley.jpg" alt="ROMboy.co.cc" title="ROMboy.co.cc" border="0" width="350" height="45">
which would create absolute nightmare to sort out when you upload it on net. It is better to stick to relative path. So if image is same level as html document "name.jpg" is fine, if image level up then "../name.jpg" and for level down "level/name.jpg".

yea, i agree the <b> code should not be there,
but everything's ok as far as the path goes, because after i enabled the "compatibility mode" (something like that..) in ie8, it finally showed up the jpgs., but i primarily use firefox for viewing my html... i checked firefox settings and nothing works...

does src="file:///c:\users\sonnydajalexa\desktop\test\smiley.jpg" work
Failure is not an option It's included free, you don't have to do anything to get it
If at first you dont succeed, join the club
Of course its always in the last place you look, you dont keep looking after you find it

Please mark solved problems, solved
