Internet explorer has no difficulty showing the page correctly. If I save the source html with I.E. to my hard disk, THEN I can load the page into Firefox, and it shows it correctly. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Go to the web site http://home.flash.net/~smithrc/eagleprj.htm 2. 3. Actual Results: .gif images do not show up. Expected Results: should see background flags image, Eagle Scout badge image, and TOC buttons. I think it has to do with "\" versus "/" in file pathnames. HTML likes "/", but pc's use "\" in pathnames. When the html page is saved to my hard disk using Internet Explorer, only "/" forward slashes appear in the html source, and it loads just fine in Firefox. It won't load if I have used Firefox to save the HTML page.
Using "http://home.flash.net/~smithrc/images/eagle2.gif" and not "http://home.flash.net/~smithrc/images\eagle2.gif" could help. see http://www.w3.org/TR/WD-htmllink-970328#relurl

or a dupe of bug 64488 :)
My site has a GIF image behind a SWF menu. The SWF menu shows but the GIF image does not. This template was obtained from PixelMill or 3rd party so there must be other websites out there with the same problem with Firefox. Even with 2.0.0.1 -> Works great on Internet Explorer 6.0! http://www.bridalcinematography.com Please see if this is the same problem or not?
(In reply to comment #3) > Please see if this is the same problem or not? Not the way to ask for support. (http://forums.mozillazine.org/ or irc://irc.mozilla.org/firefox is the way) About your site, a parameter is missing to the EMBED tag, you should have something like <embed wmode="transparent" ...>
