Problems with Graphics in Dynamic text field

Hello,
I have a problem, which is slowly driving me to drinking. I have constructed
a website (or trying to construct ? this is my first attempt to web
construction) in Flash MX 2004. On one of the pages, I have a dynamic text
field, which is linked, to external text file. Within this text file I am
using the <img src=?file.swf?> tag to include a picture. When I test this on
my computer in any of the three browsers, it works just fine, the image appears
where it should, however when I publish the side on a web server, the spot
where the image should appear is empty. I have no idea why this happens, and
it is driving me crazy. If this does not work out my whole web site will have
to be restructured.
For a better understanding of the problem, you can visit the web side on the
address

http://www.freewebtown.com/Bolivia

then click on option (zajezdy) on top menu and then (Chacaltaya) on the
left menu- there are supposed to be several pictures in the text, but all I get
is just empty spots ? and it works fine when I check it on my computer.
I apologize for the non-english site, but eventually it will be in english ,
and it is generally not working properly since it is under construction.

I would be very grateful to anybody who could give me a solution to this
problem. Thank you

did you remember to transfer the image to your server?

And are upper/lowercase for the name of the image correct? Testing localy is
case-insensitive, but server are mostly unix AND case-sensitive!

Probolem has been solved, incorrect capitalization in the image path was the problem - seems that web server is case sensitive, while my PC is not
