Question

Dynamic Image ONLY appearing in Safari

I am trying to create a page that uses a URL variable to get a value from a database and use it to display an image on a page. When I preview the page in Safari, the image appears. When I preview the page in Firefox or IE, the alt text appears instead of the image. The HTML code on the page seems pretty clear, but as I said, this is my first time trying it.

I am using DW8 on a Mac powerbook.

I have included the page source code here. The photo 'tiger.tif' is supposed to be displayed.

I just checked - FF2 and IE6, both on Win2K, won't display TIFFs. JPEGs,
GIFs and PNGs should all be OK.
