I can't reproduce it either.

  • Is your code valid and error-free (denoted by a green checkmark in a circle)?  See screenshot.
  • Are you in LIVE or DESIGN view?  Try toggling to LIVE with Ctrl/Cmd + Shift + F11.
  • Does the image reside in your local site folder on your computer's primary hard drive?
  • Or is the image on a remotely hosted server?

 

 

What happens when you REFRESH Live view with F5?

Hello,

The image is on local external hard drive. In Split View, and now toggling to Live View. Updated the doctype and character set, now the editor shows the green ok icon. Linking an image again, it seems that the image links correctly, but the. Preview window doesn't accommodate the whole page at once, in other words, the image doesn't show unless manually scrolling the Preview. When closing the document and starting over, the scroll starts on top where the image shows.

Preview doesn't accommodate, I meant the whole html-page doesn't fit inside the Preview pane without scrolling.

That points to the fact that your page is not responsive. In other words, you have not catered for smaller screen sizes. 

 

As an example, this is the image for desktops

 

And this is mobile view

Hello,

I'm referring to the Preview above the HTML editor in the Split view of the main Dreamweaver window. Yes, the image links correctly to the HTML page. In this case, closing the document and starting over, it works properly.
