IMAGES IN HTML


                 Images  enhance the look  of a web page  and make  it  attractive.  These are used  to  convey
                 information and catch the attention of website visitors. The most widely used image formats
                 supported by HTML are GIF, JPEG and PNG. The images on a web page can be inserted using the
                 <IMG> tag, which is an empty tag. It has the following attributes:




                      Attribute                    Value                           Description
