Hi Virajmata.
In HTML, images are defined with the
![]()
tag.
The
![]()
tag is empty, which means that it contains attributes only and it has no closing tag.
To display an image on a page, you need to use the src attribute. Src stands for "source". The value of the src attribute is the URL of the image you want to display on your page.
The syntax of defining an image:
The URL points to the location where the image is stored. An image named "boat.gif" located in the directory "images" on "www.w3schools.com" has the URL: http://www.w3schools.com/images/boat.gif.
The browser puts the image where the image tag occurs in the document. If you put an image tag between two paragraphs, the browser shows the first paragraph, then the image, and then the second paragraph.
Hyperlinks, Anchors, and Links
In web terms, a hyperlink is a reference (an address) to a resource on the web.
Hyperlinks can point to any resource on the web: an HTML page, an image, a sound file, a movie, etc.
An anchor is a term used to define a hyperlink destination inside a document.
The HTML anchor element
, is used to define both hyperlinks and anchors.
We will use the term HTML link when the element points to a resource, and the term HTML anchor when the elements defines an address inside a document..
An HTML Link
Link syntax:
Link text
The start tag contains attributes about the link.
The element content (Link text) defines the part to be displayed.
Note: The element content doesn't have to be text. You can link from an image or any other HTML element.
The href Attribute
The href attribute defines the link "address".
This
element defines a link to W3Schools:
