If I go to

http://localhost/somefolder/somepicture.bmp

I cant see if in my navigator.

Now

If I go to

C:/somefolder/somepicture.bmp

It works perfectly.

This is completely driving me crazy. I really have no other methods that I could try to get this to work.

Ask questions and Ill try to give answers.....
Thanks

your problem might be caused by relative/absolute path error.Inorder to get absolute path of your image directory use this javax.servlet.ServletContext.getRealPath(java.lang .String/*your relative path here*/).
