Heang,

Your image calls currently consist of

src="l-tc.jpg"

Since you're running the form from the /cgi-bin/forms/ folder - That call then looks for the images in that /cgi-bin/forms/ folder which is incorrect.

You should update your image calls to:

img src="/l-tc.jpg" --- Starting with a slash to start at the root of your site. This will allow the image to always be found in the future if you ever create sub-folders.

i have deleted my post as i2 beat me to it LOL.
However, isn't it correct that not all cgi-bin's will allow images to be shown?

Most do not allow html / images / etc to be viewed from the cgi-bin.

This is why they should be in the public folder. Normally

.com/images/ for example.

Then when making a call to an image in that folder, this will
always work:

<img src="/images/filename.gif">

In any folder of the site. Main public folder, sub folder...
