I’m running a php website locally using mamp. On the front page (i.e. index.php) there are a few broken image links that point to image files like ‘/images/logo.gif’. These were working on a version of the site hosted remotely.
In the actual main web folder I see a subfolder “resources” that contains the subfolder “images”. I can’t figure out whether the image links should know to look in the resources folder from other code or if the img src field in the html (from inspect element on the locally hosted version) should actually be reading ‘resources/images/logo.gif’. I’m hesitant to just change the field in the code without knowing if it should be seeing the subfolder in resources.
EX.
-/site
-index.php
-/includes
-/resources
...
-/images
-logo.gif
...
-/css
etc....
I apologize for this novice question, but I just can’t figure out the appropriate resources to find the right answer for this.
If your image links to “images/logo.gif” then your browser will look for the images folder in your root directory. The reason that you’re getting broken image links is because you don’t actually have an images folder there! You’ll need to change everything to “resources/images/logo.gif”.
