Writing HTML in Microsoft Word?
Am I doing something wrong? For my Computer Concepts class we are to open a Word document and save it as a web page (.htm). This I can do. Then there is a series of instructions such as hyperlinking (which i can also do). However, we are then asked to insert HTML tags (specifically an image tag. We are to use the URL of a specific image, which I know). My problem is this... When I enter the HTML tag where it says to, then open the file with Google Chrome, or Internet Explorer, I only see the text of the HTML tag, NOT THE IMAGE. Why is this?
P.S. I am using Windows, and I made sure that file extensions are not hidden.
NOTE!!!!: When I enter the same tag into notepad, and open it in Word, I see the image. This tells me that the tag works fine, but for some reason when I insert the tag IN Microsoft Word and open it in my browser I am not seeing the Image. i don't think the Tag is not the problem. Perhaps my code is wrong? This is what is looks like :
<img src=“http://inside.arc.losrios.edu/arclogo.gif%E2%80%9D alt=”American River College logo; an oak tree with the letters ARC below it“>

Hint: Don't use WORD as HTML editor, it is possible but it results in a pain of a HTML file as WORD will insert a lot of tagging.
Seamonkey is a browser with integrated editor I consider it as quite good. You can upload with FTP directly or with Filezilla.
OK maybe not subject of your class but isn't it there for teaching you HTML editing? Not many people would want to do this with Word on purpose.

Yes will have to fully specify where the image is via the <img src= ... bit, because where Word understands where it is is not the same as a Web Browser necessarily.
So if the image was called myimg.jpg in the tmp directory off the root directory of C: for example you could put ...
<img src="file://C/tmp/myimg.jpg" ...
... or something that starts with http: if the image exists on the World Wide Web somewhere.
