    Where does the image go?

    Basic image control question. How do I set the imageurl property? I
    tried relative and I just get the red X, I tried absolute and that
    returns a redX (works fine locally, just not over the web). The actual
    address (say http://www.mysite.org/theimage.jpg) should point to an
    image in the virtual IIS directory, in this case
    D:/inetpub/wwwroot/mysite. www.mysite.org is actually a dyamic IP
    address that is mapped via www.gotdns.org but I don't think that is
    the problem.

      How about using the IP address of the server?

          Thanks. I did try that and it wasn't working either. Besides, it's a
          dynamic IP address and I could never hardcode that. Oddly it doesn't
          actually change for months but I can't plan on that. Of course, I have
          to have gotdns.org remap the address anyway once it changes but I can
          have that done automatically I think.

          There was something else weird going on with the app anyway. I kept
          viewing the source and the source did not reflect the page. That is, I
          saw something about the browser not supporting frames and please
          <CLICK HERE>. Nothing about the image or even the text on the webpage.
          I had written a default.aspx just to redirect the user to the real
          main page so I scrapped that approach and just looked through IIS
          until I found where to set the actual first page as one of the
          defaults and that worked fine. Then I trashed the first page and
          started over just using the filename as the address (it is in the same
          directory as the app) and it worked perfectly. So it wasn't the URL
          that was bad, it was just something I had screwed up elsewhere.
