672 PointsI am blocked at this 2 to 4 task : placing an image into a body
I typed this <body> <img src=¨img/cupcake.jpg¨ alt= ¨cupcake¨>
</body>
Is it because this file does not exists on my computer? Thanks

Should look something like this
<img src="foldername/picture.jpg" alt="whatever text here">
(hint: foldername aka directory)

Courses Plus Student 94,596 PointsThe code you typed didn't make it into your post. Can you edit your posting and put in the code you have so far?
Since you're in a code challenge you wouldn't need to have the image they are referring to on your computer.

Whether or not the file exists on your computer won't affect how the code runs in the challenge. Double check your syntax for the image tag.

672 PointsOk, so I had to do this : We've placed an image named 'cupcake.jpg' in a directory named 'img'. Add the image to the body of the document.
My idea was to do this :
<body> <img src = ¨img/cupcake.jpg¨> </body>
It s not working ...
Got my code that time?

672 PointsOk I got it, but whats weird is that they say they put in the folder of the tutorial this image, and actually it s not on it ! So should I rename an image with that name?
