Greetings!
I've created a script that should display some images to participants via an html page at the start of the study. The script works fine and displays the images correctly in my lab version of Inquisit but when I attempt to run the script in Inquisit web the pictures no longer display. I'm hoping someone can advise about what the problem might be. Thank you!

(1) Make sure you have uploaded the images to your experiment along with all other files.
(2) Make sure the <item> elements in your script, which are referenced in the HTML, give image file names in all lowercase characters. (File names are always all lowercase on the web for cross-platform compatibility reasons.)
(3) Consider using a web-friendlier image format (e.g. JPEG instead of bitmap).

Changing the file names to all lowercase letters solved the problem. Thank you!
