Hi Katie, it seems that this is a problem of the webbrowser. slicesdir appears to process everything fine -including writing the HTML and creating the png files, but the webbrowsers (I tried Safari and Firefox on mac os x so far) can't deal with an image containing a '#' in it's name correctly. In both cases the status bar claims that the link is to a blah#blah.png file, but the display does not work. If you work on a mac you can run 'open ./slicesdir/*png' instead, which opens all images in Preview (if that's your png default) Otherwise I guess you'll need to rename files - if you use a shell script it's quite easy to rename all your files in ne go. hope this helps christian On 19 Apr 2007, at 19:49, Katie Karlsgodt wrote: > Hi, > I was just wondering if there are constraints on the image names (or > anything else) that slicesdir can read in?
