Lastest iWeb on Maverick working fine, but well I upload website, photo grids are not showing!

I have the lasted iWeb and Maverick. I open iWeb and everything is fine, I can see photo grids, add images, change text...etc. I can publish the site to a folder on desktop and upload it using Cyberduck. However, once I check the website, the photo grids are not showing. I tried opening it in different browers, deleting Caches, publishing the whole site, publishing just the change page, nothing seems to be working.

After publishing, I check the folders and the media files and images are there, but they will not upload to website. What's going on?

OS X Mavericks (10.9.3), iWeb 3.0.4

If the files will not upload to the server when you use Cyberduck, why then are you surprised the page does not display properly?

Since you do not use iWeb to publish to the server, then it's not an iWeb issue.

Compare what you see on the server with what you have on the desktop.

Well, iWeb gives me the option to publish entire site or site changes to a local folder. Then I use cyberduck to upload the files from the local folder to the server.

I have being doing this for years with not problems when I had iWeb 2.0.4 on Mac OS X 10.5.8. It's giving me problems now that I have updated both iweb and computer. That is why I'm thinking it's an iWeb issue.

Also, if I edit text or add an image (not using the photo grid), the changes do appear.

Perhaps you did not upload all files after a change.

Let Cyberduck do the syncing between the local files and the files on the server, or do the comparison yourself by looking at the time/date of the changed files.

I just tried both of these options, everything looks as it should, and the photo grid still not showing.

Does the page display properly when you open the published page from the folder on the desktop.

Drag the photopage.html file on the Safari (or other browser) icon.

Yes, it displays correctly when I drag it to Safari and Firefox, but not Chrome. However, when I open the website, it displays incorrectly on all three browsers.

Chrome does not display webpages on the desktop well. It's a known problem.

Can you provide the URL to the page?

Then you've not uploaded all of the files to the server. With Cyberduck you should get a Finder link window of your account folder on the server. There you can manually upload the site folder to your account and have it replace the existing site folder. Watch the upload carefully to see if there are any messages about files not uploaded, etc.

What's the URL of your site so we can examine it first hand?

Here is the website:

http://www.pdnbgallery.com/Site/HOME.html

I've always publish the entire website to the local folder on the desktop and from there I would select only pages I needed to change and upload those to the server. So you will notice that everything is working on all pages and I'm only testing one page for now which is:

http://www.pdnbgallery.com/Site/PaulGreenberg.html

Regarding Cyberduck, no messages about files not uploading are coming up, and when I analyzed all folders and FTP nothing is missing.

Clear your browser's cache (Command+Option+E for Safari) and relaod your site. All of the photo album pages display in full for me with Safari.

I have clear the cashe on all browsers. Does the album display when you go to

http://www.pdnbgallery.com/Site/PaulGreenberg.html ? This is the only page I'm testing right now. If I upload all the new files then all the page will not display the photo grids.

There appears to be nothing wrong with the PaulGreenberg photo page.

I cannot determine why the images do not load.

Other photo pages are correct.

Perhaps you can duplicate one of them and replace the images and then see what happens.

I have actually tried duplicating the page and changing the images and still no luck. If I go to the my old computer and use the old iWeb to make a change to the PG page and upload it, it works fine.

The only thing I have noticed is that the PG is not creating sub-folders, here is a comparison between a pages that is working and the one that is not.
