Hi!

Someone knows why all imaes is broken into Dreamweaver CS5 (I know, it´s an old version).

I´m working as a blind user whe I use Dreamweaver.

When I open the HTML into Google Chrome it´s all ok.

Are you using Absolute, Site Root-relative or Document-relative paths to images?

In Dreamweaver, Absolute links begin with https:// to an external image hosted on a public facing server. "Site root-relative links" start from the main root folder of your website, while "document-relative links" starts from the current folder where the HTML page is located. Essentially, site root links use a leading slash to reference files from the website's root directory. Document relative links are based on the current page's location.

Site root relative links perform best when uploaded to a server, whereas document relative links work locally and on the server.

Hope that helps.
