Can I use FTP to replace images in my site without breaking anything?

I replaced two image files on my website through FTP, and now a flash banner on my page is broken. Does that have anything to do with how I replaced the images?

Based on the information provided, my answer is, "possibly".

Sorry, that was vague.

I opened up the site with Coda and replaced two images - logo.png and one other similarly named image with files that have the same filename and dimensions. The part that's broken is a javascript slider (originally thought it was flash, that was incorrect) and the javascript console is showing that the jQuery libraries included are now returning an error (Failed to load resource: Server responded with a status of 500 (URL Module Rewrite Error)).

So I guess the question is can I edit individual files without messing up some sort of server setting? Is this error a coincidence, or could it be related to uploading new files to the server?

javascript is case sensitive.  Might that be relevent?

Tom

Are you replacing the image with cfftp tag or with different code?

Probably recompiling the flash file with those new images and replace the .swf file in the site may help it.

Let me know if I am not understanding the issue correctly.

Swaraj
