HTML Image

<img src=/c/happy.jpg>

Unlike most HTML tags the HTML image tag does not have a closing tag.

src= contains the path to the image.

-This path can be the full url
example: http://ilovethecode.com/images/iltc.gif
-Or this path can be relative
example of one directory up: ../iltc.gif
-Or from your serving directory
example: /iltc.gif


The most commonly used parameters for the image tag are as follows:

border=3 <--- number of pixels
align=top <--- top bottom middle left right
alt="My Happy JPG" <--- text to display if image doesn't display. Needs quotes.
width=50 <--- image width in pixels or add % sign
height=50 <--- image height or add % sign
hspace=5 <--- to wrap text around - pixels - horizontal
vspace=5 <--- to wrap text around - pixels - vertical


<img src=/c/happy.jpg border=3 align=right alt="Happy JPEG" width=50 height=50 hspace=5 vspace=5>
