Found something nobody's mentioned. :)
I still have the experimental 2x3 grid of image path attempts here:
http://72.52.154.100/~blinky/imagetest.html
Okay, the first two apparently break for having the home directory in
the path. Let's pretend they're not there...
....because I have all of the other four tries on that page working.
wOOt!
What I did was comment out a line in .htaccess:
#RewriteRule .*\.(jpg|jpeg|gif|png|bmp)$ - [F,NC]
I don't know what it does <g>, but one of its effects seems to have been the
prevention of image display.
I don't know why that line screws up display here, and not with my live
Page-Zone location.
1. So what am I "giving up", if I just keep that line disabled?
2. Can this all (the whole problem) come from the fact the way I'm
accessing the unborn site location -- not as blinkynet.net but as
server/username... ? IOW, if I just uploaded the whole site and went
live with the new incarnation, might the issue go away? (I know I'll
have to tweak one bit of the path that I've not mentioned -- I have a
different username with the new location, so any references to my old
root directory will have to be changed.)
