17: Images in HTML

The Web sure got more interesting when images were introduced! This article shows you how to add images to your pages using the <img> element, and how to use alt, title and longdesc to provide further background information and make them more accessible. It finishes off with a brief look at adding decorative images to a page using CSS, a topic which will be covered in a lot more detail in the CSS section of the course later on.

it's repeat-x and repeat-y, not repeatx, repeaty

but it's probably a typo since the rest of the article is excellent material.

Thanks for pointing it out - I've fixed it. There was something weird going on the the dev.opera.com parser, since the dashes were in the original source code.

Thank's Chris for the extra information re image placement, not shown in other tutorials on this same subject.
I am not nit-picking when I say "the title" was omitted in imagesandcss.html

Some small typos:
- the title attibute is not emphasized in the subheader "Adding nice-to-have information...", same for the next header with longdesc
- the subtitle for figure 2 is not styled properly

bottom-right and center-right are also wrong, I think the '-' is not required here.
