I see... but you really mean you were not aware that there existed the <img> tag for displaying images in html? >> Don't you like the <img> tag? :-? > > So many choices. Will try <img>. :-) The <object> tag is mainly used to load another kind of content (java applets, multimedia files and all kind of external/non native "plugins", in general). A good source for getting the basics on html and related technologies is this site: http://www.w3schools.com >> you mean the image at the bottom ("Product Diagrams")? > > Correct. > >> Maybe I'm missing something but I can see the image rendered using >> Firefox 14.0.1 :-? > > Yes, with the correction from Manuel Cremer it works.

For them I am making Category2.html with png diagrams. Yes, SVG is not well supported in many Internet Explorer versions, for instance. > Thanks for recommending <img>, ... Peter E. You're welcome. Note there's a slight difference when using <object> and <img> tags. Look, if you open the page: http://members.shaw.ca/peasthope/Category2.html#Product0x0Test0 Rigth-click over the image and choose "view image info", there's no preliminary view, it appears to be broken. This can be good (to avoid being scanned by bots) or bad (the web browser cannot cache the source).
