Question

I am trying to show some static Images from the Folder using img tag

First tried using

<img border="0" src="E:\\liferaytomcat\\liferay-portal-6.1.0-ce-b4\\tomcat-7.0.22\\Uploaded Files\\1146Wj.jpeg" alt="Pulpit rock" wid`th="304" height="228" />

Also tried with

<img border="0" src="/E:/liferaytomcat/liferay-portal-6.1.0-ce-b4/tomcat-7.0.22/Uploaded Files/1146Wj.jpeg" alt="Pulpit rock" width="304" height="228" />

Also tried with

<img border="0" src="E:\liferaytomcat\liferay-portal-6.1.0-ce-b4\tomcat-7.0.22\Uploaded Files\1146Wj.jpeg" alt="Pulpit rock" width="304" height="228" />

But always the result is as the alt value (That is Pulpit rock )

Answer 1

According to Microsoft:

file:///E|/liferaytomcat/liferay-portal-6.1.0-ce-b4/tomcat-7.0.22/Uploaded Files/1146Wj.jpeg

But a website cannot access files on the local machine, unless that site is served by the local machine:

Internet Explorer 6 Service Pack 1 (SP1) no longer allows browsing a local machine from the Internet zone. For instance, if an Internet site contains a link to a local file, Internet Explorer 6 SP1 displays a blank page when a user clicks on the link. Previous versions of Windows Internet Explorer followed the link to the local file.
