I have the following <img> tag in a static HTML document.
<img src="foo.gif" alt="This is an animated gif image, but it does not move"/>
After I set its src attribute to point to a .gif file (i.e. foo.gif), the GIF appears as a static (or non-moving) image. How do I animate the GIF?
By default browser always plays animated gifs, and you can't change that behavior. If the gif image does not animate there can be 2 ways to look: something wrong with the browser, something wrong with the image. Then to exclude the first variant just check trusted image in your browser (run snippet below, this gif definitely animated and works in all browsers).
Your code looks OK.
Can you check if this snippet is animated for you?
If YES, then something is bad with your gif, if NO something is wrong with your browser.
<img src="http://i.stack.imgur.com/SBv4T.gif" alt="this slowpoke moves" width="250" />
Agreed with Yuri Tkachenko's answer.
I wanna point this out.
It's a pretty specific scenario. BUT it happens.
When you copy a gif before its loaded fully in some site like google images. it just gives the preview image address of that gif. Which is clearly not a gif.
So, make sure it ends with .gif extension
try
<img src="https://cdn.glitch.com/0e4d1ff3-5897-47c5-9711-d026c01539b8%2Fbddfd6e4434f42662b009295c9bab86e.gif?v=1573157191712" alt="this slowpoke moves" width="250" alt="404 image"/>
and switch the src with your source. If the alt pops up, try a different url. If it doesn't work, restart your computer or switch your browser.

Just learning to code. And would like to know why my images aren't showing on my browser(s). Both Firefox and safari. I'm using an iMac computer (which is not a problem anyway).
Here is an example of the code:
<img src="images/fish08.jpg" alt="Big Fish" width="250" height="200">
Something must be wrong with your source path. Your code should work if this is your folder structure:
- fileWithImageElement.html
- images
- fish08.jpg
Please read HTML file paths to see which one you should use.
I uploaded an image to my web server just like all the images are. I created it in Photoshop and exported to a .png. The image resides under The code is src="" But the browser shows that the image does not exist. I've set permissions to 0777, I've changed the image path, tried a different image in the same path to confirm it's reading the path right, and the image will just not show. You can view the link here, it will show nothing
EDIT: This is what the image is suppose to look like
EDIT: Removed links for privacy
You forgot " at the end.
It should be like this:
src="img/SccBridgeLogo.png"
OR
Try adding / at the beginning of the path, that should tell the browser to search from index directory.
src="/img/SccBridgeLogo.png"
Note this only works if you are running on a site, running from index.html in browser will return in
File:////
I had to use the picture tag for fallbacks and came across this issue at that point.
This use to work fine
<img src="images/netgraph-logo.png" alt="NetGraph Logo">
After adding the picture tag
<picture>
<source srcset="images/netbob-logo.webp" type="image/webp">
<source srcset="images/netbob-logo.png" type="image/png">
<img src="./images/netbob-logo.png" alt="NetBob Logo">
</picture>
In my case I was able to go down one folder from the root folder, therefore "./" preceding the rest of the url worked fine. You may need to back up several folders instead though, so be sure you are using the correct type of path.
Here is my code...
<img id="imgsave" />
$("#imgsave").attr("src",canvas.toDataURL("image/jpeg",1.0));
I'm writing the toDataURL output to an html image and setting it as jpeg. But when I right click the image and try to save it, it's always PNG whatever I do. Any ideas?
I've got an .svg file with some code in it.
If I just put that code in my HTML with the <svg> tag it works fine.
The problem is is that I've got quite a lot of code in my .svg and I don't want to put all that code in my HTML. So I've made an .svg file and tried to link it, but it didn't seem to link.
Does anyone know how I'm supposed to link an .svg file to a HTML file?
The easiest (and probably most correct) way of doing this is to simply put your SVG file as src in an <img> tag as if it were any other format.
Keep in mind that this might not work in some older browsers (this is the problem is general with SVG, not just with using it in an img tag).
Another option is using it inside an <object> tag, as seen in this article (which also breaks down the two options and the drawbacks of both):
<object type="image/svg+xml" data="kiwi.svg" class="logo">
Kiwi Logo <!-- fallback image in CSS -->
</object>
In this case, your retain the ability to affect the parts of your SVG with CSS - which may or may not be what you want.
I would usually use it inside an using <img src="link to svg file" />
<img src="data:image/svg+xml;base64,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" />
How to Add Scalable Vector Graphics to Your Web Page
for example you can use :
<object type="image/svg+xml" data="image.svg">Your browser does not support SVG</object>
I just switched the site from my working files to the server.
It worked fine when I uploaded it to my portfolio but once it was on the correct domain it stopped working. The image, instead of displaying, just shows up blank so I tried going to it's direct url.
Instead of it working it downloads the image instead of displaying it.
Here is the direct url: Direct url
My tag: <img src="images/login_header.svg" alt="Alright, lets start finding discounts!" />
My structure:
// root (BBCM)
//// images
////// login_header.svg
//// css
//// js
// end root
I have tried:
/images/url.svg
the direct url for the image
BBCM/images/url.svg
It works fine when it's on my portfolio but not on the correct domain.
Any ideas? When the image downloads it also displays the correct image so I am a bit lost here.
Is your server sending the .svg file down with the correct MIME type? It should be image/svg+xml.
See Nginx offers of downoload SVG instead of showing it for another question along the same lines.
Some browsers don't allow the IMG tag to support SVG files, you can however put it in an object with an image as fallback in case the browser fails to render.
<object data="image.svg" type="image/svg+xml">
<img src="fallbackimage.jpg" />
</object>
try use <object data="/images/login_header.svg" type="image/svg+xml"></object> instead
