IMAGES

The Image code (IMG) is used to reference images. It has the following form:

   -- <IMG -- SRC=" -- image source --" -|---------------------------|--=>
					 |                           ^
					 |- ALT="- alternate text -"-|


	--|-----------------------------|--->--|
	  |                             ^
	  |-- ALIGN= --|--- TOP ----|---|
		       |-- MIDDLE --^
		       |-- BOTTOM --|

The alternate text is displayed on browsers that do not display images (text browers like lynx), or on other browsers that have the "Load Image" option turned off. The ALIGN statement aligns one line of text (remainder of the line) with the TOP, MIDDLE, or BOTTOM of the image.

You can include the IMG tag within the "hot text" portion of the anchor text (between the end of the <A HREF ...> tag and the </A> tag. This allows you to click on the image to execute the link.

NOTE: Unless you have a video card capable of handling at least 256 colors, many of the images that you display may not look very good. If some of the images do not look good, check to see that your video card is using the driver which gives the best selection of colors and resolution for your card. If so, you will either have to endure the quality of images that it gives, or invest in a better video card.
