Title: Anyone know how to get pictures to show up in htm documents?

Anyone know how to get pictures to show up in htm documents?
I'm trying to crreate readme files with pictures in htm format. It seems to work initially, but when I put it in a zip, email it to myself, and open it as a test, the pictures arn't there anymore. I'm using word 2007.
Any help would be appreciated///
Thanks  :thumbsup:

its because the emaild version cant access the files relative to the document location any more...

cant you just send a word document.... or make it properly and use a coding program, or notepad

to do it in notepad use <img src="the url of the uploaded pic" />

if you want you can send me the files and i will construct a htm doc for you

Using word as an HTML editor is not very smart as Word is not designed for this task
use nvu ( http://www.nvu.com/ )

I would go with what master wouanagaine says... word is definatly not good at anything other than making word documents

there is still the problem of the sources though, maybe try and attach all the pictures in the email with it

yes as for the pics you should include them in your zip ( in the same folder as the html ) and the <img src= > should just include the name of the pic ( with the extension, but no path )

Thanks for the help. Unfortunately I'll just use a doc. file. Getting the html to work is not... well... working.
I appreciate your responses though :thumbsup:
