| Browsers such as Mosaic and Netscape allow you to include images inbetween lines of text. |
| The image must be in GIF format. (Netscape now allows inlined JPEG images.) |
| Suppose that we make a banner for our company that includes the name in a GIF image. Then we can replace our original plain text header with the image: |
| <img src="rugbanner.gif", alt="Oriental Rug Company"> |
| Only the SRC attribute of the image is required. ALT is optional and gives alternate text for text-based viewers such as Lynx which cannot show the image. |
| The attribute BORDER=value tells the width of the picture border in pixels (this is blue if the image is a link). |
| The VSPACE=value and HSPACE=value attributes specify the numbers of pixels of blank space to surround the image. |
| Another attribute is ALIGN=top|texttop|middle|absmiddle|baseline|bottom|absbottom. If there is any text after the picture which can fit on the formatted page besides the picture, this will say how to place it. The default is "bottom". |
