    I was wondering if some of you can help me.

    It is much easier for me to do this...

    I have a basic web application (very simple, very rudementary basic html with some Javascript) that has some calculations and some images, based on information provided. Think of is as a product display webpage. Everything works on the laptop and desktop, but when I copy the files over to the Playbook, the pictures are not displayed.
    All the text appears, but the product images are not displayed.

    Is there anything that I can do to get the images to display.
    I really don't want to lug around the laptop, and have found that handing the Playbook to the customer is a lot easier and gives them a sense of control.
    Sometimes were are not near and hotspot or wifi connection, so this is why I put the files on the Playbook.

    There is no flash, nothing more than html code mixed with some javascript. All the calculations work, all the text is posted, it is just the pictures/images (gif, jpg) that do not display.

    Thank you in advance to those who will provide solutions.

    Did you transfer the images over to the PlayBook? Are the images in the local directory of the html source? Or were they originally in some path on the laptop/desktop? Maybe you just need to update the IMG SRC paths?

    Directory structure copied straight from the laptop.

    Application
    - index file
    Application/Source
    - working files
    Application/Source/Product01
    Application/Source/Product02
    Application/Source/Product03
    -the above contain the image files

    Image code is written in two different formats

    <p align="center"><font face="Arial"><strong>Please select the folder to continue.<br>
    </strong></font><a href="portfolio/master.htm"><font face="Arial"><strong><img src="portfolio/images/folder.gif" border="0" width="51" height="87"></strong></font></a></p>

    OR/AND
    document.write('<h1 align=center>' + theProduct [whichImage] + '</h1>');
    document.write('<h3 align=center>' + theDescription [whichImage] + '</h3>');

    Thanks

    Let's try this again.
    html files are found in
    Z:/documents/Portfolio/
    and image files are found
    Z:/documents/Portfolio/Images/

    if your html file is in the " Z:/documents/Portfolio/" then, you must point to your images like this: "<img src="Images/folder.gif" /> "
    No need to point with the absolute path. just the relative path.

    Maybe the html parser of the playbook is too strict ? try to add the "/" at the end of the src tag. ( /> ) instead of ( >)

    The capitalization of portfolio and images may also be an issue, considering the PB is a Unix box underneath.
