Firstly, how you put an image on your page
This is very simple you just include the <img src="location">,
location being the URL where you put your image
What about making it a link?
All you have to do is put the <img src="location"> inside a link tag,
for example <a href="http://dspace.dial.pipex.com/mpk/"> <img src="http://dspace.dial.pipex.com/mpk/mpk.gif"> </a>
would give you a grphical link to my page as below
But there is a horrible border round that picture!
Ok all you have to do now is include border="0" in the
<img src="location"> tag, for example <img src="http://dspace.dial.pipex.com/mpk/mpk.gif" border ="0"> </a>
And it will look like this
On the other hand if you like the border you can of course make it a big as you like
What about allocating width and hieght attributes?
For this you just add the pharse width=#pixels or
width=#% for the percentage or the screen,
this is usefull if you are going to have a sideline like this
height is done in the same way.
What about naming pictures
For this you use alt="name-of-image" so you now have
which will look like this,
<a href="http://dspace.dial.pipex.com/mpk/">
<img src="http://dspace.dial.pipex.com/mpk/mpk.gif" alt="MPK on-line" border ="0" height="35" width="80" > </a>
Move your cursor over the image for it's name
NEWish commands, the map,ismap and NOSAVE
The Map commmand is just for image maps they need commands.
The NOSAVE command is brillent is stops people saving your images! whats more it is simple to put in your impages you just put it along with the alt command.
I think it may be java based but I know 95% of my visitors have java enambed browsers so that doesn't really matter anyway even if is stops one person stealing your work surly its worth the effort ;-)
What about alligning pictures with text
The best way to do this is to use tables but this can be tricky;
depending on how meny pictures you have. so to make it clear
I have done this on a separate page called Image info part 2 of course
My favourate web site, especially the pages on images
If you want to make sure you have done youe HTML coding correctly on your site, or do check other aspects of your site,
make Web site Garage your first stop. They offer meany service for Free.
I visit most days.
