General Gadgets template not working in Expression Web 2

    Hi everyone, this is my first post so please be gentle :D

    I downloaded the gadgets template and began to work on it in Expression, only to realise when I viewed it that no images were present. I've done a search of the forums and found that someone else had the same problem and that they were told to upload all of the images in the image folder but I can't see what difference this would make. Could someone perhaps explain this a bit more clearly for me please?

    Thanks in advance.

    Neither design view, split view or any web-browsers I'm testing in display the images.

    If you look at the code in the template you will see the path pointing to an images directory.
    Code:
    <input type="image" src="[COLOR=red]images/btn_login.gif[/COLOR]" name="l" value="h" id="l" />
          </div>
    If you do not store the images there, then you must state where they are stored. The browser reads the code, so it knows how to display your page and it knows where to go to fetch items to display.
    Does that clear things up for you?
