FAQ (was Re: how to put images into my web page like <img src ....)

["Tangi Vass" <tangivass@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

This question has been answered many times in this mailing list (I'm sure
because I allready asked it here ;-).

Go to http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list and look for mails entitled
"How to generate HTML with dynamic attibutes?" or "Simple question - links"
(especially David Carlisle's ones). The XSL-List web site has a useful
search form.

There is also a FAQ which answers such questions (this one is #2.25) at
http://freespace.virgin.net/ben.pawson.

A word to the XSL-List mainteners :
I think it would be convenient to add this link to every mail of the list to
help newbies and prevent them from asking such basic questions.

The trick is to enclosed the IMG's SRC value with accolades : <img
src="{@MAINMENU}"/>
