    I have images in a custom field in my web log, one per field entry. The entry reads

    {site_url}/images/uploads/greg_williams.jpg

    I don’t see anything unusual about this. The images show up fine in Firefox, Safari, and Opera, but no dice in IE 6 or 7. Any ideas what might be causing this?

    Everything else on the site works fine, it’s valid XHTML and CSS and almost no conditional styles for IE (only one for IE6).

    Have you tried to make a blank template and just put the weblog:entries tag in there to see if it’s still happening in IE?  That way you can pinpoint if it’s your actual html code going bonkers or an ee problem.

    Could be a problem with the image itself. Try pasting the URL of the image directly into a browser. If IE doesn’t show anything, try re-exporting and see what happens.

    check for capitalizations as well. I have been known to do that from time to time.
