How to get HTML code for image

If you want to get the HTML code for an image that is already displayed on a webpage or embedded in it, follow these steps:

Method 1: Using Browser Developer Tools

1. Right-click on the Image:
   • Navigate to the webpage where the image is located.
   • Right-click on the image you want to extract the HTML code for.
2. Select “Inspect” or “Inspect Element”:
   • This will open the browser’s Developer Tools, with the HTML code for the webpage and the selected element (the image) highlighted.
3. Locate the HTML Code:
   • In the Developer Tools panel, you will see the HTML code corresponding to the image.
   • Look for an <img> tag with attributes such as src (source URL of the image), alt (alternative text for accessibility), width, height, and any other attributes that may be defined for the image.
4. Copy the HTML Code:
   • Right-click on the highlighted <img> tag in the Developer Tools panel.
   • Choose “Copy” or “Copy Element” to copy the HTML code for the image.

Example HTML Code for an Image:

• Explanation:
  • <img>: Represents the image element.
  • src: Specifies the URL of the image.
  • alt: Provides alternative text for the image (important for accessibility).
  • width, height: Defines the dimensions of the image (in pixels).

Method 2: Viewing Page Source

If you want to extract the HTML code for an image from the entire webpage’s source code:

1. View Page Source:
   • Right-click anywhere on the webpage (not directly on the image).
   • Choose “View Page Source” or “View Source” from the browser’s context menu.
2. Search for <img> Tags:
   • In the page source code, use your browser’s search function (Ctrl + F or Cmd + F) to search for <img> tags.
   • Locate the <img> tag that corresponds to the image you are interested in.
3. Copy the HTML Code:
   • Copy the entire <img> tag or just the relevant attributes (src, alt, width, height) as needed.

Note:

• If the image is generated dynamically or fetched using JavaScript after the initial page load, you might not see its <img> tag directly in the page source. In such cases, using Developer Tools to inspect the element is more effective.
• Ensure you have the right to use and display any images you extract HTML code for, respecting copyright and usage permissions.

To include an image in an HTML document

You use the <img> tag. Here’s how you can add an image and the necessary attributes you should know:

Basic Structure of the <img> Tag:

Explanation:

1. <img> Tag:
   • The <img> tag is used to embed an image in an HTML document.
   • Attributes:
     • src: Specifies the URL or path to the image file (src="image.jpg"). Replace "image.jpg" with the actual path or URL of your image.
     • alt: Provides alternative text that describes the image (alt="Description of the image"). This is important for accessibility and SEO.
     • width and height: Optional attributes that define the dimensions of the image in pixels (width="300" and height="200").
2. Relative and Absolute Paths:
   • Use a relative path (src="images/image.jpg") if the image file is located in a directory relative to the HTML file.
   • Use an absolute URL (src="https://example.com/image.jpg") if the image is hosted on another website.
3. Alt Attribute:
   • The alt attribute is crucial. It displays text in case the image cannot be loaded or for users with visual impairments who rely on screen readers.

Best Practices:

• Accessibility: Always provide meaningful text in the alt attribute to describe the content or purpose of the image.
• Responsive Design: Use CSS (max-width: 100%; height: auto;) to ensure images resize appropriately on different screen sizes.
• File Formats: Use appropriate image formats like JPEG, PNG, or SVG depending on the type of image and requirements.
