HTML coding to link image to my Mac

[micro2234391431]

Hi,
I have used the following code to link a reference and image for a logo from my personal folder. I pasted the url of the image from my Mac but it doesn’t seem to work. An empty box shows up with no image. What am I doing wrong?

I have x’d out the website reference and changed name of file but the path is the same (removed a’s):

href="website url"> <img src = "file:///Users/name/Documents/Logo.png" alt="logo" style = "width:30px; height:30px;>

Hey there @micro2234391431! Welcome to the forums

I am not accustomed to Mac’s file system, though if I understand correctly, the first portion of the path should start with a drive name, eg. C D E. And it only has two forward slashes as opposed to three.

I am uncertain what this is:

href=“website url”>

Perhaps you missed typing part of an element?

In the future it may prove helpful if you post your code formatted, simply press this button:

Then copy/paste your code between the two rows of backticks:

Thanks - adjusted to include format. I just typed in “website url” as I didn’t want to link my public profile which is what is being used for the link. I’m using a LinkedIn logo and linking that through href to my profile.

You might want to take a look at this thread, while it’s talking about a css file path contextually, all the info pertains to regular paths:

Cant get my html + css to link correctly

Hi! welcome to the forums Actually the clue is how you’re typing in the link command. The syntax may be valid but usually it’s the path that gives people issues. For example: //These all go to different places! /myFolder/styles.css //root directory ../myFolder/styles.css //one parent directory up ../../myFolder/styles.css //two parent directories up ~/myFolder/styles.css // home directory Here’s a link for reference:
