Hi,
Sorry for the delay in my response. I was busy fixing things.
Mischa --> thanks for the browse suggestion in IIS. I kind of used that to
solve this problem. The admin had just entered username for the virtual
directory in connect as dialog box. So I entered the password as well and it
works fine now.
Finally, about my original solution not working for you Mischa, I am using
the same FF version 2.0.0.14 and it worked. The solution which worked for me
is the one where I use <img src = "img2.cfm"> code. Let me know if you still
have problems in FF.
Douglas thanks for the suggestion. I didnt check it but a very good point to
remember about IIS should run under a domain acccount.
*Acccepted Solutions & Important Points to remember:*
1. instead of cfincluding the img.cfm, do a
<cfif fileExists(theFile)>
<img src="...*img2.cfm*">
</cfif>
2. Use browse feature in IIS to see if you can view the file/image to narrow
out CF/Browser issue.
3. IIS should run under a domain acccount
4. Use CFContent <cfcontent type="image/GIF" file="
\\servername\nameofshare\clientname\CF_Chart_Share\testimage.jpg">
Thank you everyone.
Ajas.

No matter what, find a way. Because thats what winners do.
You can't improve what you don't measure.
Quality is never an accident; it is always the result of high intention,
sincere effort, intelligent direction and skillful execution; it represents
the wise choice of many alternatives.
"Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever."
