The <img> tag will add an inline image to your page. The attributes of <img> are align, alt, border, hspace, vspace, longdesc, usemap, ismap, width, and height. The values of align are left, right, and center. alt is used to supply alternate text for text only browsers. border can be set to a pixel value and defines the width of the border around the image if it is linked. hspace sets the horizontal space around the image. vspace sets the vertical space around the image. longdesc is for referring to another document with more information about the image. usemap is used when the image is used with a client side imagemap. ismap is used when the image is used with a server side imagemap. width and height define the dimensions of the image.
