    Well more info would be a start !

    Broken image ? are you embedding an image somewhere ?
    What language are you using ....
    What have you tried etc ....

    Also , After Hours might not be the best place.

    You need to test your code on a selection of images first to perfect it

    In order to help you, I've PM'd you a fresh picture of me lad

    It's a common enough problem. What you need to do is post on stackoverflow.com They know all the answers and are very friendly.

    Maybe you need to quote the code.

    10 print "Feck off"*

    20 goto 10


    That's about as far as I got on my Dragon 32 back in 1981. It had 16 colours. 16 FFS. And 32 K of ram. :eek: That it was made in a shed in Wales seemed less an issue back then.







    *willies/tits/teacher X is a prick/I am the greatest were also acceptable entries

    Rejoice in the awareness of feeling stupid, for that’s how you end up learning new things. If you’re not aware you’re stupid, you probably are.



  • Registered Users Posts: 121 ✭✭DefinitelyMarc


    It's probably either where you stored the image or how you're linking to it.

    For example, if your framework has a folder for images, that is where it will start looking for it. If it's in a subfolder, you'll have to specify that. You'll also need the correct file extension.

    So if you have an image called "my_image" with a type of JPEG and it is stored in a "test" subfolder inside the "images" folder (And you're doing this with HTML), it could look something like this:

    <img border="0" src="test/my_image.JPEG" width="100" height="100">

    I had a dragon 32 too. Had the space invaders cartridge for it and had a ball. Didn't like the zx spectrum or the commodore.

    Learned my first serious lesson about doing backups. Spent 3 weeks debugging a program from a magazine that would get dragon to draw a 3d looking pyramid, which I got working in the end (and was very proud of) but didn't do a backup of the program on the cassette tape recorder, and the recorder promptly ate the tape with the only copy. I was very pissed but havn't forgotten to do a backup since.

    Bring back img lowsrc="", that's the way I did it in Netscape back in the summer of '99.
    Sure by the time the modem finished the dialup song you'd had a lovely aul mono image already.

    Oh I hear that OT. For me and my mates it was a Donkey Kong cartridge, or a Welsh ripoff of same.:)

    Print='Hello World'


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,596 ✭✭✭kyote00


    Send them some BF code....
    [ This program prints "Hello World!" and a newline to the screen, its
      length is 106 active command characters. [It is not the shortest.]
    
      This loop is an "initial comment loop", a simple way of adding a comment
      to a BF program such that you don't have to worry about any command
      characters. Any ".", ",", "+", "-", "<" and ">" characters are simply
      ignored, the "[" and "]" characters just have to be balanced. This
      loop and the commands it contains are ignored because the current cell
      defaults to a value of 0; the 0 value causes this loop to be skipped.
    ]
    ++++++++               Set Cell #0 to 8
    [
        >++++               Add 4 to Cell #1; this will always set Cell #1 to 4
        [                   as the cell will be cleared by the loop
            >++             Add 2 to Cell #2
            >+++            Add 3 to Cell #3
            >+++            Add 3 to Cell #4
            >+              Add 1 to Cell #5
            <<<<-           Decrement the loop counter in Cell #1
        ]                   Loop till Cell #1 is zero; number of iterations is 4
        >+                  Add 1 to Cell #2
        >+                  Add 1 to Cell #3
        >-                  Subtract 1 from Cell #4
        >>+                 Add 1 to Cell #6
        [<]                 Move back to the first zero cell you find; this will
                            be Cell #1 which was cleared by the previous loop
        <-                  Decrement the loop Counter in Cell #0
    ]                       Loop till Cell #0 is zero; number of iterations is 8
    
    The result of this is:
    Cell No :   0   1   2   3   4   5   6
    Contents:   0   0  72 104  88  32   8
    Pointer :   ^
    
    >>.                     Cell #2 has value 72 which is 'H'
    >---.                   Subtract 3 from Cell #3 to get 101 which is 'e'
    +++++++..+++.           Likewise for 'llo' from Cell #3
    >>.                     Cell #5 is 32 for the space
    <-.                     Subtract 1 from Cell #4 for 87 to give a 'W'
    <.                      Cell #3 was set to 'o' from the end of 'Hello'
    +++.------.--------.    Cell #3 for 'rl' and 'd'
    >>+.                    Add 1 to Cell #5 gives us an exclamation point
    >++.                    And finally a newline from Cell #6
    
    
    
    


    This can be reduced to
    ++++++++[>++++[>++>+++>+++>+<<<<-]>+>+>->>+[<]<-]>>.>---.+++++++..+++.>>.<-.<.+++.------.--------.>>+.>++.

    I had a look at the one I learnt, on seening the words, 'public static void main', sent a shiver down my spine. Always awful at coding. Now I work with code these days but not a developer so dancing with the devil.
