[Music] all right welcome back let's take a look a deeper look at these images and a couple other things we can do with them i'm going to move this this image of the kitten back up to the top so that we have it at the very top of our html page here so we already talked about the um we talked about the alt tag and how you can hover over an image and it will show the alt the alternative text i also want to talk about how we can change the size of the image with height and width so we can set the height to a value we might want the height to be only 100 and the width to be like 1000 or something and then if we save that and refresh we can control sort of the height and width of the image and that's going to make it look uh not great because we're really stretching the width there what if we make the width like 400 we'll kind of just make it like look a little bit funky so we can still tell that it's a kitten as you work with images you'll find that these height and width attributes on the image tag itself are not the greatest way to resize the image most often times you'll use css or cascading style sheets to style your images another cool thing you can do is you can actually put an image inside of an a tag so if we say a href equals google.com you'll notice that we can click on that image and it will take us to google.com so typically the style too that that we have here is that your your html i hadn't i hadn't actually adjusted the style like the code style here in the editor but typically you want your html set to um you know two two tabs indented and it's it's common practice that when you are nesting html elements inside of other elements that you indent before the beginning tag and all the content that way you can kind of make the code more readable so here at the top we have html we wouldn't want like all of these directly against the the first line we don't want them all lined up against the first line because we can't tell easily by looking at this where which elements are nested inside of which other elements so we generally will have like some sort of indentation to help us read the code so this is this is all about readability the browser doesn't actually care um what your indenting looks like but the user or the developers who are implementing the code it's much easier to do if you have it indented so if we save this and refresh we should be able to click on this now and be brought to google.com so you can make an image that is also a link so that can be handy all right in the next episode let's talk about tables we're going to make some some tables maybe with some data in there and we'll we'll populate the tables with some content so let's go do that now [Music] you
