The code suggests your correspondent is sending mail using Windows Live mail
(the proposed replacement for Hotmail) and that program is not correctly indicating a filepath to any image file, and the net result of that is that when the message is sent, no image file is included. As an example, one gif file is indicated by this tag IMG alt=184ac0.gif and is not found when the message is sent since no drive/folder path to "184ac0.gif" is indicated. The same problem exists throughout the code for all images. -- Jim Pickering MVP-Windows Mail applications Please reply only to the newsgroup. "Bill" wrote in message ...

Sorry, my error in my first reply. I didn't scroll down far enough to see
images properly embedded. What you might do, if you wish, is forward the mail to me and let me look at it to see if any obvious error can be found in its handling. Without that, it's really hard to tell. If you wish to forward it, please do as an attachment (I.e., right click on the message in the list, and select Forward as attachment) and send it to jim @ mvps.org removing the spaces from the address. -- Jim Pickering MVP-Windows Mail applications Please reply only to the newsgroup.

The sending program did screw up the HTML code.
The little boxes you saw with the 3 colored objects and the image name are caused by the IMG alt=184acf.gif tags. There are 10 of those scatter in the message. They are all missing the actual SRC field specifying the actual image file. So somewhere along the way, the images got lost. At the bottom of the message are 10 tags such as IMG SRC="CID:{35C0E555-BFFB-45B0-A889-139B99CA1A08}/ATT1423665.gif" That's a suitable syntax provided that at the bottom of the message are the encoded images with matching Content-ID along the lines of ------=_NextPart_xxxx Content-Type: image/gif; name="ATT1423665" Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64 Content-ID: {35C0E555-BFFB-45B0-A889-139B99CA1A08}/ATT1423665.gif fkdsljflkdsfjl;ksdjf;lksjl;kjfhgjI ..... the rest of the encoded attachment. In that case, the 10 images should have been displayed at the bottom of the message. However, if the encoded attachments are missing, or the IMG SRC CID doesn't match the Content-ID:, then you'd get just the little box with the red X in it. -- Mike - http://pages.prodigy.net/michael_santovec/techhelp.htm "Bill" wrote in message ...

The little boxes you saw with the 3 colored objects and the image name are caused by the IMG alt=184acf.gif tags. There are 10 of those scatter in the message. They are all missing the actual SRC field specifying the actual image file. So somewhere along the way, the images got lost. At the bottom of the message are 10 tags such as IMG SRC="CID:{35C0E555-BFFB-45B0-A889-139B99CA1A08}/ATT1423665.gif" That's a suitable syntax provided that at the bottom of the message are the encoded images with matching Content-ID along the lines of ------=_NextPart_xxxx Content-Type: image/gif; name="ATT1423665" Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64 Content-ID: {35C0E555-BFFB-45B0-A889-139B99CA1A08}/ATT1423665.gif fkdsljflkdsfjl;ksdjf;lksjl;kjfhgjI .... the rest of the encoded attachment. In that case, the 10 images should have been displayed at the bottom of the message. However, if the encoded attachments are missing, or the IMG SRC CID doesn't match the Content-ID:, then you'd get just the little box with the red X in it. -- Mike - http://pages.prodigy.net/michael_santovec/techhelp.htm snip Mike Thanks for your input - I've got myself a nice little 'jigsaw puzzle' to try and match the text with the images!

Its not worth it. Most of those forwarded messages are not funny in the
first place. I know. I get tons of them from people with a sense of humor that isn't quite their own. I'd be thankful they didn't display in some circumstances. G cheers, steve "Bill" wrote in message ... "Michael Santovec" wrote in message ... The sending program did screw up the HTML code.
