HTML img Tag

HTML img Tag

 

 

The img tag is used to embed an image in an HTML page. We can only link images inside the HTML document. We cannot insert images into it. The img tag specifies the space for the image in the document. It has two required attributes for best performance. Thes are:-

  1. src:-  Specifies the path to the image
  2. alt:- Specifies an alternate text for the image in case the image does not appear

We have to specify width and height of an image otherwise page flickers when loads. For image linking, we have to add img tag in it.
