How To Add An Image To Your Webpage

You can add an image anywhere on your webpage with the image tag and control the content next to it with the image tag attributes.

Image Tag

To put an image on your webpage use the code below. Replace the image.gif with the name of the image you wish to use. If the image is in a subfolder put the name of the subfolder before the name of the image and separate them with a /.

folder/image.gif

Then replace the 0 with the number of pixels for the width and height of your image. Finally replace the identification with the identifying text for your image.
<img src="image.gif" width="0" height="0"
alt="identification">
Note--The arrow indicates that the code is wrapped to a second line and should really be all on one line.
Border Attribute

To set the width of the border around an image, replace the 0 with the number of pixels you wish the border to be. The zero will cause the border not to show. Then place the code segment inside the <img> image tag.
border="0"
Hspace Attribute

Use the code below to set a blank/empty space on the side of an image. Replace the 0 with the number of pixels you wish the empty space to have. Then place the code segment inside the image tag.
hspace="0"
Vspace Attribute

Use the code below to set a blank/empty space on the top and bottom of an image. Replace the 0 with the number of pixels you wish the empty space to have. Then place the code segment inside the <img> image tag.
vspace="0"
Align Attribute

To control the alignment of the text next to an image replace the location with left, right, top, middle, or bottom. Then place the code segment inside the <img> image tag.
align="location"
