Image display on MVC view

Question

I am trying to display image on the cshtml file. The spam filter prevents me from typing the HTML for image. However the source is set to

src= \"@Html.Encode(Mod         


        

Answer 1

You have specified an absolute path which doesn't exist on the client computer. Try like this:

<img src= "@Url.Content("~/uploads/FileUpload12011_03_02_11_49_22.jpg")" alt="IMAGES" />

or if your model variable contains "~/uploads/FileUpload12011_03_02_11_49_22.jpg" you could:

<img src= "@Url.Content(Model.PictureLocation)" alt="IMAGES" />

Answer 2

The path in the src attribute must be relative to the website root, not the absolute path on the server. So in your case that would probably be something like "/uploads/FileUpload12011_03_02_11_49_22.jpg".
