Long Answer Type Questions [5 Marks each]
Question 1. Explain various attributes of <img> tag.
Answer:
Attributes of <img> Tag
An attribute is an extra piece of information associated with a tag that provides further details about the tag.
Following are the various attributes of <img> tag:
The src Attribute: The src (source) attribute takes URL (Universal Resource Locator) of an image file as value, which points to the direct location of an image to be displayed.
The image that you specify in your <img> tag should be in your computer otherwise the image will not be displayed and in place of image a cross mark in a box 0 will appear.
The alt Attribute: This attribute of <img> tag is used to provide alternate text when an image on a Web page cannot be displayed.
The alternative text is the text associated with an image that serves the same purpose and conveys the same essential message. As per HTML standard, alt attribute is optional but is highly recommended.
The align Attribute: This attribute is used to set the position of an image in a Web page according to the user’s requirements. In HTML, images appear inline with a single line of the text. But, HTML standard does not define a default alignment for the images with respect to other text and images in the same line.
There are some values of image alignment attribute as follows:
- Top Alignment
- Middle Alignment
- Bottom Alignment
- Left Alignment
- Right Alignment
The width and height Attributes: When an image is added to a Web page, it is not mandatory to specify width and height of the image. At the time of loading an image, a box will appear on the place where the image will be loaded.
The border Attribute: You can set the border of an image that you want to use in your Web page. The border attribute of the <img> tag specifies the width of the border around an image. By default, an image has no border in HTML.
Question 2. Which attribute is used to specify the location of an image file in <img> tag? Explain.
Answer: The attribute you need to get an image to display on a Web page is the src attribute.
In the src attribute of the <img> tag, you can specify the path of the image that you want to add to the Web page. This may be an image in the same directory, an image somewhere else on the same server, or an image stored on another server.
The syntax for src attribute is <img src =”imagel. jpg”>
Question 3. Define various alignments of align attribute with example.
Answer: There are some values of image alignment attribute as follows:
Middle Alignment
This alignment is different in both Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox. In Internet Explorer, this alignment aligns the image to the middle of the tallest item in the current line. While in Mozilla Firefox, this alignment aligns the image to the baseline of the current line in which it is placed.
Example: To show middle alignment of an image.
<html>
<head>
<title> Alignment </title>
</head>
<body>
<h1> Middle Alignment </ h1>
<img src="flower2.jpg" align="middle">
A flower, sometimes known as a b'oom or blossom, is the reproductive structure found in flowering plants. The biological function of a flower is to effect reproduction, usually by providing a mechanism for the union of sperm with eggs.
</body>
</html>
Bottom Alignment
This alignment aligns the bottom edge of the image, to the same horizontal plane as the baseline of the text. Both Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox treat this alignment in the same manner.
Example: To show bottom alignment of an image.
<html>
<head> <title> Alignment </title> </head>
<body>
<h1> Bottom Alignment </h1>
<img src="flower2.jpg" alt="flower" align="bottom">
A flower, sometimes known as a bloom or blossom, is the reproductive structure found in flowering plants. The biological function of a flower is to effect reproduction, usually by providing a mechanism for the union of sperm with eggs.
</body>
</html>
Left Alignment
This alignment aligns the image to the left on the Web page respectively of the browser window.
Example: To show left alignment of an image.
<html>
<head> <title> Alignment </title> </head>
<body>
<h1> Left Alignment </h1>
<img src="flower2.jpg" align="left">
A flower, sometimes known as a bloom or blossom, is the reproductive structure found in flowering plants. The biological function of a flower is to effect reproduction, usually by providing a mechanism for the union of sperm with eggs.
</body>
</html>
Right Alignment
This alignment aligns the image to the right on the Web page respectively of the browser window.
Example: To show right alignment of an image.
<html>
<head> <title> Right Alignment </title> </head>
<body>
<h1> Right Alignment </h1>
Cimg src="flower2.jpg" align="right">
A flower, sometimes known as a bloom or blossom, is the reproductive structure found in flowering plants. The biological function of a flower is to effect reproduction, usually by providing a mechanism for the union of sperm with eggs.
</body>
</html>
Question 4. Write HTML code to illustrate
- listed hyperlinks
- image hyperlinks
Answer:
Listed Hyperlinks: It is noticeable that <a> tag can also be used for more complex task (as with images or with lists etc.)
Example: To show listed hyperlinks.
<html>
<head> <title> List </title> </head>
<body> <h1>List </h1>
<ul>
<li> <a href="linkl.html"><img src ="F:Fruits-wallpaper-91.jpg" align="middle" height="75" width="75">
Fruit Chart </a></li><br><br>
<li> <a href= "link2.html">
<img src="F:\vegetable.jpg" align="middle" width="75" height="75">
Vegetable Chart </a> </li > </ul>
</body>
</html>
Output:
Image Hyperlinks: Images can also be used as hyperlinks. To create image as a link, following syntax is used:
<a href = “URL”> <img src=”image1.jpg”> </a>
Example: To show image as link.
<html>
<head>
< title>Image as Link</title)

Question 5. Explain the following (with example):
- linking on same Web page.
- linking on different Web page.
Answer:
Linking on the Same Web Page
To create an internal link, you need to use a pair of <a> tags. The first <a> tag is used to specify the name of the target location for identification purpose. It is known as target fragment. You can use the <a> tag with its name or id attribute to identify a fragment. This type of anchor is commonly called as named anchor.
The first step is to make the target fragment. The simple syntax to do so is written below:
<a name =”aa”> Part A </a>
Where, “aa” is the name of fragment/segment you want to refer (like top, bottom etc.). The second <a> tag is used to create a link to the target fragment. The simple syntax to link to the target segment is written below:
<a href = “#aa”> ClickHere </a>
In the second <a> tag, the value of href attribute with # symbol is to be specified.
Example: To show the internal linking in an HTML document.
<html>
<head><title>Internal Linking<title></head>
<body>
<h1>Linking in a page </h1>
<h3>Click here to go to the
<a href="#bottom">bottom</a> of the page.</h3>
<br>><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br>
<br>><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br>
<br>><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br>
<a name="bottom"><h3> You are at the bottom of the page.</h3></a>
</body>
</html>
Output:
Linking Sections of Different Web Pages
Internal linking enables us to link sections of different Web pages also. It can be done by specifying the name of the Web page and the section which is to be linked. To link two Web pages, you first need name to the section by using name attribute of <a> tag that you want to link. Suppose, we need to link a section of HTML1.html to HTML2.html. Create a named anchor in HTML1.html.
The syntax is given below:
<a name =”link”> Different Page </a>
After this, you have to write the code to refer to it, from Web page HTML2.html. Following is the code to do so:
<a href =”HTML1.html#link”>
Here, HTMLl.html is the name of html file to the section of which you want to link and # link is the segment name you want to link in that html file.
