Problem with Images Not Showing Up in...

To whom it may concern:

I recently purchased the HTML editor and have been working on trying to create my own web site. I'm trying to add two images for groups I belong to. I put them in the file with the other images I'm using, the file name and the code I typed are the same but it still does not show up when I preview the site. I'm new to web site design and recently finished a course on beginning web page design so I really don't understand CSS. My question is am I supposed to put the code in the CSS sheet or directly on the index.html page. Right now I have it on the index page. If I'm to include it in the CSS sheet where do I put the code and what would the code be.

I hope this makes sense because I spent several hours yesterday trying to get the images to show up with no success.

Any help you can give me would be appreciated.

Eileen,

If you are new to HTML, the easiest thing to do in HTML Editor, is the following:

In the main menu bar, click on Insert > Image
http://www.mrziegler.com/images/Desktop.jpg

Click on Desktop and navigate to the folder your images are in and choose the picture you want
http://www.mrziegler.com/images/images.jpg

Add any title or alt tag information you want, specify an image size if you want, then click OK.

That will make sure you have the correct folder, name of file, filetype (a lot of people put .jpeg instead of .jpg).

Lowell:

I just tried the above instructions you gave and it worked. My images are now showing up. With being new at this, I will remember that the next time I need to add an image.

Thanks again for your help.
