You needed to fully qualify the file name. let me get you one.

When you are at the image, right click on the picture, then pick 'copy image URL'. You can then paste it into your IMG tag.

like this (I changed teh first bracket to an ellipse so you could see it):

Usually you need a URL that ends with ".jpg" or the like for this to work.

Often you can get it if you right-click on an image and select "copy image URL" (or whatever it is called in your browser).

Some websites try to prevent the so-called "hot linking" of images by various means, though, hence it doesn't work (so easily) sometimes.

Here's the hitch, I think. When I right click on the image, I do get the little box with the choice of "copy image URL", but when I click on that nothing happens. I don't get a chance to copy it.

Is it from a website? Could be that it's blocking you from copying it, that happens. Or is it your own photo? I actually had a tough time trying to post photos from my flickr site, which I would have thought to be straightforward.

Anyways, don't give up. Try another photo from somewhere else. :wave:

When you want to show someone code without it actually working you just put code and /code around it. Easier than altering the code and then having to explain what they need to de-alter.

I was able to copy the url from the original website (as was Mik).

You have a ' in your file name. Edit your post and take a look. Note that I took out the ' and it's working now.

Thanks, Riley! I did as you said and it worked.

Now I'll try another one. Sorry for all this clutter -- I've been trying to use my email, but that doesn't work, either.
