Don't misconstrue what I said. This IS the place to find info.....about web development.
The src attribute of the img tag must point to an image file RELATIVE TO THE DIRECTORY THE HTML FILE IS IN! Right now, you can't even move your image file around on your computer (for whatever reasons), you're going to have a heck of a time trying to develop websites if you can't move files around.
For example, I have files as below:
C:\index.html
C:\images\myimage.jpg
In index.html, I would have to use
<img src="images/myimage.jpg">
in order for the image to show up.
Another example:
C:\websites\index.html
C:\images\myimage.jpg
I would have to use:
<img src="../images/myimage.jpg">
The ../ indicates the path to the image first goes up one level.
Along these same lines if I had this:
C:\websites\public_html\index.html
C:\images\myimage.jpg
I would have to use the following in my index.html:
<img src="../../images/myimage.jpg">
Now that little primer should explain what the src attribute of the img tag actually does and give you a better understanding of how to use it.
