I've been trying to make an HTML template to use in emails. I want to embed inline images from my computer. I'm using:
<img src="images/footer.png" alt="" width="100%" style="display: block;" />
However when I copy the template in the email, the images don't show up. I don't have that isue if instead of using an image from my computer I use an image from a web server. So apparently the imagen won't get attached to the email and that's why they don't show up. Is there any way I can get to use images from my local computer and send them with the email?
Let me explain what I want to do more in detail:
I Code a template in HTML
I display the template in a browser
and copy it.
I paste it in the email.Once the template is
in the email I edit it and add text, images, whatever I want.
Everytime I want to use it I just want to copy the template from
another email and edit it.
Any solutions?
Thanks in advance.
Couple things here:
Make sure your image isn't hosted on a local server; your audience will not be able to see it if it is.
I see you are using a relative file path. You need to use an absolute path. For example:
Instead of
<img src="/images/photo.gif">
You would code it like this:
<img src="http://www.website.com/email/images/photo.gif">

I am wondering if someone can help me with a problem I am encountering with iPhone/iPad. I have an email the generates a report as an HTML attachment. In that HTML attachment, there are two images. One is a static image that pulls down a logo using a normal HTML img tag.
The other is dynamic. It also uses the normal HTML img tag, however it calls out to a web api with some information identifying the user.
<img src="http://MyApiServerName.com/api/User/{id}/{OtherParm}" >
The Web API uses information on the user to return appropriate images to them. For some reason the dynamic image does not show up with the attachment is opened on an iPad/iPhone.
The image works just fine when the attachment is opened from a computer. I thought maybe something might be blocking images, however then I would expect the static image not to display as well. I verified that the "Load Remote Images" setting is turned on.
I am at a loss here. Is there something with iOS that prevents dynamically generated images from showing in HTML attachments?
Thanks
Ok, I can't explain why the above is not working, but I did find something that does. Instead of using the following URL
<img src="http://MyApiServerName.com/api/User/{id}/{OtherParm}" >
use
<img src="http://MyApiServerName.com/api/User/{id}/{OtherParm.jpg}/" >
The final param needs to end with ".jpg/". If the slash is not there, you will get a 404 error.
Then in the API method, you simply strip off the .jpg part of "OtherParm" to get the intended value for "OtherParm".
I was thinking about getting started creating my own website with weebly.com. If I eventually want to move my website to a different host is there a way to do that? When I edit the html code it seems like weebly doesn't show you the whole code that's being used.
For example I just see:
<div id="main"><div class="container">{content}</div></div>
Instead of the <img src> or <p> that are actually on my page?
Is there any way I can see the full code or should I choose a different editor?
In your site editor, make sure you're on the SETTINGS tab, select GENERAL, scroll down, select ARCHIVE. Enter your email address and click EMAIL ARCHIVE. A link to download your zipped archive file will be mailed to you.
I would like to view images on my box account natively inside a simple rails app. The goal is to run a slide-show with these images. I looked for the necessary parameters to pass each images relative url into a <img source> tag. It appears that I can only download images, or view them from within the Box application.
Is this accurate, or did I miss something within the Box API documentation?
When you create a shared link for a file, there is a download_url attribute that can be used to link directly to the file.

I am having trouble displaying an image from the internet on my html page.
The line is:
<img src="http://www.somepic..." alt="pic" />
What is wrong with it? Does that only work with images that are on my disk?
Thank you
Based on the URL you've presented in the comments above, my guess is that you're not actually linking to an image, you're liking to a web page but mistaking it for an image.
For instance, the url you provided:
http://www.google.co.il/imgres?q=picture&hl=iw&sa=X&rlz=1C1SKPL_enIL452IL452&tbm=isch&prmd=imvnsl&tbnid=BAlLxbccyZkwSM:&imgrefurl=http://animal.discovery.com/mammals/cheetah/&docid=qDOKJbIkYvvzyM&imgurl=http://animal.discovery.com/mammals/cheetah/pictures/cheetah-picture.jpg&w=625&h=450&ei=Y-grT8_ZNYnntQb4kID0DA&zoom=1&iact=hc&vpx=693&vpy=191&dur=850&hovh=190&hovw=265&tx=155&ty=84&sig=110318714666115395229&page=1&tbnh=141&tbnw=183&start=0&ndsp=19&ved=1t:429,r:1,s:0&biw=1280&bih=656
Is the URL of a webpage showing the image, not the image itself.
Make sure you're linking to the actual image itself:
<img src="http://animal.discovery.com/mammals/cheetah/pictures/cheetah-picture.jpg"
alt="Cheetah!" />
if you want to add any url for image you will need to right click on that image and click on copy image address.
and paste that address as url to get image on your webpage
Is it possible to embed an image in my html code and make it avaible in offline mode. My goal is to create an html file without any other files associated with it.
Thanks
Yes.
<img src="data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAUAAAAFCAYAAACNbyblAAAAHElEQVQI12P4//8/w38GIAXDIBKE0DHxgljNBAAO9TXL0Y4OHwAAAABJRU5ErkJggg==" alt="Red dot">
Taken from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_URI_scheme#HTML
You'll need a proper DataURL for your image. Try a utility like http://dataurl.net/#dataurlmaker to get the DataURL, which you can then copy into your html.
