Oldiesmann i appreciate the help but i still cannot see attachments all the settinsgs are right you posted attachments and then i tried but still nothing. anyone else out there with an idea
Okay here is a dumb ? i was using IE and oldiesmann was using Firefox he posted attachments on my board i decided to use firefox and wham my attachments showed up what is going on here.
IE is messy like that :P it does not work the same on all peoples computers.
Funny thing about it is it is just my site i have friends that have smf forums and i can post fine on their site with IE but not mine. it is hosted at siteburg.com wonder if that has any reason.
okay at the bottom right of the forum i see this link.. http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/check/referer
when i click it i get this displayed
Target: http://pumpersforum.siteburg.com/forum/index.php?action=manageattachments
Please, validate your XML document first!
Line 56
Column 84
Open quote is expected for attribute "height" associated with an element type "img".
There is also this link http://validator.w3.org/check/referer when i click it i get this displayed...
http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fpumpersforum.siteburg.com%2Fforum%2Findex.php%3Faction%3Dmanageattachments
Could this be the reason for IE not working properly when i post attachments.
no that wouldn't cause the attachments to break :P
It's that stupid banner that siteburg inserts that's causing all your validation errors... Capitalized tags, using single quotes for attributes instead of normal double quotes... I don't see why that would cause your attachments to not work properly in IE, but I would find another host if I were you.
The banner is also being inserted before attachments, which would be why they don't download properly.

But if it works with firefox then why not IE. browsers are browsers correct they are going to post the same way.

Wrong. Most browsers handle certain parts of coding differently. Also many browsers handle CSS very differently, and support different CSS features. IE isn't very good at supporting CSS2, while Firefox is much better.
