HTML filter

You're probably using filtered html and have the img tag blocked. Look at the "Allowed HTML tags" to see which you can post.

improper use of the <img> tag

Posted by Christefano on January 26, 2007 at 11:34am

As Arancaytar says, be sure that the <img> tag is allowed in your input filters. On another note, the <img> HTML tag doesn't have a closing tag. Try this instead:

<img src="http://www.phun.org/newspics/funny_friday/1310.jpg">

To improve the experience for your website's visitors, it would be wise to include width and height attributes:

<img src="http://www.phun.org/newspics/funny_friday/1310.jpg" width="457" height="599">

and just to be really pedantic ...

you should also include a trailing slash in your img tag like this

<img src="http://www.phun.org/newspics/funny_friday/1310.jpg" width="457" height="599" />

I must be tired today; I didn't even realize that

<img>url</img>

could never work, no matter what the filter allowed. I'm too used to BBCode apparently.
