There is few ways to show image button on the webpage. Here I use <a.
<a target="_parent" href="/newWebPage.php"><img src="/images/light_on.png" alt="Light" /></a> |
Above example shows an image with event. newWebPage.php will open if user click on the image.
- target="_parent" means open a new page when user click on the image. See http://www.w3schools.com/tags/att_a_target.asp for more information
- href= is the action. It will open newWebPage.php when user click on the image.
- img src= show the image on the page. It support many formats such as png, jpg, gif, bmp & others. I often use png & gif (animation) format since both support transparent.
- alt= will show the text if the associated image is not exist.
Note: IE8 and Google Chrome show output differently. There is a rectangular frame around the image if loaded with IE8, while Google Chrome did not show any frame.
Below example execute a javascript function called runCmd with two parameters:
<a href="javascript:runCmd(1,'a')"><img src="/images/fan_on.png" alt="Fan" /></a> |
See http://www.w3schools.com/tags/tag_a.asp for more information on how to use <a
Below example shows four images aligned in horizontally:
<a target="_parent" href="/newWebPage.php"><img src="/images/light_on.png" alt="Light" /></a> |
