Hi If you use server.mappth then its map server path means if your application host on iis and path for application is E:	estapplication then server.mappath return this value. and also agree with sam.

I suggest building HTML using the DOM instead of as text. That probably does not make any difference however for the problem you are asking about.

try without Server.Mappath if you have the exact path.

Hi thanks for your reply i was trying to run your code const string Image_directory = @C:/Content_example/; ArrayList pics = new ArrayList(); string s = null; string html = null; foreach (string s_loopvariable in Directory.GetFiles(Server.MapPath(Image_directory) *.gif)) { s = s_loopvariable; html =  ; } pics.Add(html); i get this exception : 'C:/Content_example/' is a physical path but a virtual path was expected ON the Server.MapPath command
