I am having a problem with having the img come from the database in a protected area of my site. The images came through from the database link fine, but when I restricted access to the page they no longer come up. All the other database info shows but I get a broken link for the image. What can I do so this doesn't happen?

a couple of questions.
1. is the actual image stored in the database, or just a link?

2. how are you restricting access to the page

3. are you trying to reference the image in the restricted page, or from another page?

I just have the image name in the database (image.jpg) and direct it to the file in the image source box after I select the data source (in insert image) this works outside of the restricted page.

I am restricting the page using the user authentication tools Ultradev comes with.

I am not sure of your last question but here goes. I have the images out side of the resricted files in a image folder. I believe that is the problem because it won't let the data through, though it does allow the other DB info come through.

Any ideas?

the answer to your question lies with troubleshooting... What I always do when I'm fixing a problem with a relative url is to view the trouble page in a browser, then go to "View > Source" to see the actual HTML generated by the script.

my guess is that the relative link the file is incorrect...
