The Apple Quicktime plug-in will display TIFF files, but it's no
guarantee that every visitor will have even that (some of us despise
Quicktime and Apple's Jewish-mother nagging about it ;-). GIF, JPEG,
and PNG are your viable choices. If you need a decent image manager and
converter, I might suggest Cerious Software's ThumbsPlus.

Mark and Pid are right, Targa's Tagged Image Format
File [ .tif is aka .tiff ] is not supported in
browsers. It is the second most densly packed with
information image format. [ RAW being the highest data
in the file ] You are far better off to use png, jpg
or even gif instead, far smaller file sizes and every
browser can display them.
to use tif on a website, you would need to use a
graphics app embedded into the page to display them,
if that particuar app is on the client system. [ good
luck there, I do not know of a single graphics app
that you can find on every system guaranteed ]

Hello all,
I really need a nudge in the right direction.
I have some TIF files that I transferred from a
windows box to a linux
box over a Samba connection. I cannot get Apache
to display the
file.TIF with this simple .htm :
<html>
<body>
<img src="file.TIF">
</body>
</html>
When I convert it to a PNG with Win Paint, and then
copy over, I can get
Apache to show it.
This works:
<html>
<body>
<img src="file.PNG">
</body>
</html>
Does anyone know why I can't get TIF files to
display on Linux / Apache?
Am I missing a conversion? a config in .conf? Any
help is appreciated.
Thankyou.
