Default attachments with images

Dear Steve
The sequence I followed is .....
1.compose in frontpage and save as web page (htm)
2.open in IE and save as single file MHTML
3.attach MHTML file to email (OE) and send to outbox
4.retrieve from outbox and open the attachment
After step4 the music plays but the image does not display. Interestingly
if I copy the HTML from the 'failed' opened attachment into frontpage, all
works fine. It appears that OE was unable to take the image with it when
sent to the outbox. You have identified a probable problem in that the cid's
never appear. I feel sure that they used to when doing similar things with
earlier versions of IE. I am not sure what to try to get these src's with
cid's. Any pointers appreciated.

Ron

Open the file with Notepad and see if the images tags' srcs contain CIDs to
represent the images or are still referencing the file://c: etc designation.
If the latter, the images were not embedded into the mht file. Try saving
it from IE as an mht file instead of from Frontpage and see then if it has
the CIDs in the IMG src= parts.

I have constructed a web page with music and picture files using Frontpage
and saved it as mhtml document. (The animation of the page is controlled
using javascript.) When sending the file as an attachment (in OE 6) the
picture files are 'lost' although the rest of the animation including the
music works OK. Full url's are used - "file:///C:/ etc " to reference
the
images. Any ideas?
