Hi folks.  I'm having problems viewing the FLASH tutorial on this page:

http://www.expression-web-designer-help.com/Createadropdownmenu.htm

I've downloaded the latest version of FLASH.  Has anybody else has this problem?  Thanks.

I just tried to view this tutorial and it never opened: display images from a database. Also, I was looking at one of the tutorials from the main site and the sample page says it is available in flash but I wasn't able to find a link.
I was looking for some help displaying records from an access database that include thumbnail images which link to full size images.  You've got an example posted using your Moth's database but with no pictures.
 
Removed the one link it didn't go where I thought it was going.
 
After a long break I came back to this. I'm able to create the database, insert the datasource on the page and it will view in the gridview I'm looking for. I need to know how to get the thumbnail images to show in the image field.
I created the image field as a hyperlink field pointing to the thumbnail. When viewed in a browser I see the link path listed 2 times in the field. Maybe one is the text and the other is the actually link? But how do I get it to display the actual image which will become the link to the full size image?

It's pretty obvious these tutorial won't be working anytime soon.
 
Can anyone help me out with my issue of displaying images from an Access database?
 
I guess I'll need some instruction on how the field in Access should be set up just in case I've got that wrong. Right now it's a hyperlink.
 
I can get all the information from the database to display on a web page but I want the image to be there instead of text.
 
A link to another tuturia that works would be useful.
 
Thanks.

Thanks for the link.
I found another link on that page and tried to follow that tutorial. I got the extra column to show up but not the picture. I was trying to follow their directions and substitute my database and field names.  I'll try it again another time and make the database exactly like they did. If that works then I'll try to adapt to my database.
Not being able to do this is why I stopped working on my "Southern Gardening" websit.
I also tried using xml but completly flopped with that.

HI tjaks,
I have looked high and low for this.  I can find data tutorials but few on images.  What you want to do does not seem a simple task.  I have Access but could not even figure out a way to get the images to show in the Access table.  I did not waste much time with it though.  It seems how you store and get the images into the Access table may be a problem also.  Are you embedding the images in Access or storing them in a separate file?  If you are embedding, it may cause a slow loading problem if there are more than a few.  I found another article at MS though that does go into more detail on how to do this including getting it into an html page if you are interested. http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;285820  Hope it helps more.
