Guest rey1 Posted November 15, 2006 Share Posted November 15, 2006 I am very new at this! I have been struggling with uploading my images for a couple of weeks. I am able to upload my images using my lap top but all of my images are on my desktop. I can not understand why I can upload with my lap top, both .jpg and .gif's but on my desktop I can only upload .gif's. Most of my images are jpegs. My laptop is old and slow. I did download internet explorer 7, but don't know if that is it. The error I get is... Error: cubeside.jpg is not a valid image type. Can someone try to help me with this. As I said, I am very new at this! Thanks, Rita Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest rey1 Posted November 15, 2006 Share Posted November 15, 2006 The only thing is that I am using internet explorer 6 on my lap top and I can upload images and I have downloaded the new internet explorer 7 on my desk top, where I can not upload images. Should I go back to Internet explorer 6 to see if that works? I just was not sure if this had anything to do with the problem. Wanted to make sure before I go back to 6.

Guest Posted November 16, 2006 Share Posted November 16, 2006 cubecart by default doesn't handle the .jpg extension. You can change this in admin/filemanager/upload.php. I always change the pjpeg to jpg and it works fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always change the pjpeg to jpg and it works fine. But if it was a file that needs to be changed would this not effect both of my computers? I can upload images to cube cart with my lap top but not with my desktop computer..all of my images are on my desk top?? I really need to be able to upload if possible with my desk top.

Thanks,rey1 OK, I am responding to myself here. I had internet explorer 6 on my lap top and 7 on my desk top. I just downloaded FoxFire on my desk top and what-do-you-know, it works so maybe I can start to build my store. Thanks for all of the help! rey1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 16, 2006 Share Posted November 16, 2006 Ah sorry - didn't see that part that it was working on one computer and not another. I had this happen actually with a dell laptop - worked fine on every other computer except this 1 dell laptop. Never could figure that one out. Just didn't use it to work on the store. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest hobwebs Posted January 25, 2007 Share Posted January 25, 2007 I can confirm that IE7 in some cases doesn't allow uploading simple .jpg images when adding a product in CubeCart. The simple cure? As mentioned before, ditch IE7 and use Firefox! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
