Test your skills: HTML images

Images 1

In this task, we want you to embed an image of some Blueberries into the page.

To complete the task:

1. Add the path to the image to an appropriate attribute to embed it on the page. The image is called blueberries.jpg, and it is available at a path of https://github.com/mdn/learning-area/blob/main/html/multimedia-and-embedding/tasks/images/images/blueberries.jpg?raw=true.
2. Add some alternative text to an appropriate attribute to describe the image, for people that cannot see it.
3. Give the <img> element a width attribute of 400 and an appropriate height attribute so that it displays at the correct aspect ratio, and doesn't cause a re-render when it loads. The image's intrinsic size is 615 x 419 pixels.

The starting point of the task looks like this:

Here's the underlying code for this starting point:

<h1>Basic image embed</h1>

<img />

<p>You should see a picture of some blueberries above.</p>

body {
  background-color: white;
  color: #333333;
  font:
    1em / 1.4 "Helvetica Neue",
    "Helvetica",
    "Arial",
    sans-serif;
  padding: 1em;
  margin: 0;
}

* {
  box-sizing: border-box;
}

img {
  border: 1px solid black;
}

The updated content should look like this:

<h1>Basic image embed</h1>

<img src="https://github.com/mdn/learning-area/blob/main/html/multimedia-and-embedding/tasks/images/images/blueberries.jpg?raw=true"
     alt="blueberries" width="400" height="273" />

<p>You should see a picture of some blueberries above.</p>

In this task, you already have a full-featured image, but we'd like you to add a tooltip that appears when the image is moused over. You should put some appropriate information into the tooltip.

The starting point of the task looks like this:

Here's the underlying code for this starting point:

<h1>Basic image title</h1>

<img
  src="https://github.com/mdn/learning-area/blob/main/html/multimedia-and-embedding/tasks/images/larch.jpg?raw=true"
  alt="Several tall evergreen trees called larches" />

We've not provided finished content for this task, as it looks the same as the starting point.

<h1>Basic image title</h1>

<img
  src="https://github.com/mdn/learning-area/blob/main/html/multimedia-and-embedding/tasks/images/larch.jpg?raw=true"
  alt="Several tall evergreen trees called larches"
  title="And now, Number 1, The Larch" />

In this task, you are provided with both a full-featured image and some caption text. What you need to do here is add elements that will associate the image with the caption.

The starting point of the task looks like this:

Here's the underlying code for this starting point:

<h1>Image and caption</h1>

<img
  src="https://github.com/mdn/learning-area/blob/main/html/multimedia-and-embedding/tasks/images/firefox.png?raw=true"
  alt="An abstract flaming fox wrapping around a blue sphere"
  width="446"
  height="460" />
The 2019 Firefox logo

figcaption {
  font-style: italic;
}

The updated content should look like this:

<h1>Image and caption</h1>

<figure>
  <img
    src="https://github.com/mdn/learning-area/blob/main/html/multimedia-and-embedding/tasks/images/firefox.png?raw=true"
    alt="An abstract flaming fox wrapping around a blue sphere"
    width="446"
