The whole idea, one bite at a time

Veda Bites are swipeable micro-lessons — each one teaches exactly one idea. Here's a taste from this kit; the app has the full deck.

💡 Key Idea

The <img> Tag Is a Void Element

One tag, no closing — that's how images load.

HTML images are inserted with the <img> tag. It is a void (self-closing) element — it has no closing tag and no content inside it.

↳ <img> is self-contained: it references an external file, not inline content.

📖 Definition

Two Attributes You Cannot Skip

src and alt — the non-negotiables.

↳ Without src, nothing loads; without alt, the image is inaccessible.

⭐ Important Fact

alt Text Serves Three Purposes

alt is not just a fallback.

↳ alt is accessibility, fallback, and SEO in one attribute.

HTML Images: Embedding and Explaining Deeply

HTML images are embedded using the tag, a void element that pulls an external image file into a web page. Mastery involves understanding required attributes (src, alt), sizing, formats, responsiveness, and accessibility...

  • `` is a void element — it has no closing tag.
  • The `src` attribute holds the URL or path to the image file.
  • The `alt` attribute provides text for screen readers and broken-image fallback.

18 questions laddered from warm-up to topper-level, each with an explanation. A taste:

Which statement best describes what an `<img>` tag actually contains?

Beginner
A A pointer that tells the browser where to fetch the image B A CSS rule that styles the image C A JavaScript object that loads the image D The image pixels stored inside the HTML file
Show answer & explanation

A pointer that tells the browser where to fetch the image

The `` tag does not store pixels. It is a placeholder that instructs the browser to fetch an external file and paint it in place. The actual image data lives in a separate file such as `.jpg` or `.png`.

A student writes `<img src="logo.png">` with no other attributes. Which attribute is missing that is required for accessibility?

Beginner
A `width` B `srcset` C `loading` D `alt`
Show answer & explanation

`alt`

`alt` is the alternative-text attribute required for accessibility. Without it, screen readers may read the filename aloud and users on broken connections see nothing useful.

Which of these is a void element with no closing tag?

Beginner
A `<span>` B `<img>` C `<p>` D `<div>`
Show answer & explanation

`<img>`

`` is a void element — it has no closing tag and cannot contain child content. The other three are container elements that wrap content.

A designer places a purely decorative divider image on a page. What should the `alt` attribute be?

Beginner
A `alt="decorative"` B `alt=""` (empty) C The `alt` attribute should be omitted entirely D `alt="divider image"`
Show answer & explanation

`alt=""` (empty)

An empty `alt=""` tells assistive technology to skip the image, which is correct for decoration. Omitting `alt` entirely is worse because screen readers may then read the filename aloud.
