HTML pages contain both text for the page and the controls for determining its layout - which may include the insertion of images contained in external files.

Hyperlinks are also be defined by the HTML code and may appear anywhere on the page and include images. Hyperlinks are the mechanism whereby the structure and the navigation of your site is defined - and are addresses of web pages anywhere on the World Wide Web. Hyperlinks maybe full or relative and can also refer to a particular place on a page - even on the same page.

One of the most powerful aids for defining page layouts are Tables - which may be nested. i.e one inside another. When Tables are used for formatting - it is usual to set their borders to zero width - so that they are invisible. Background colours and images may be set set for whole tables and individual cells.

Images may be aligned: left - center (US spelling) - or right. Finer control can be acheved by placing them within tables. Images can be streched or shrunk independently in each axis - and although not mandatory - height and width for each image should defined - because of the dynamic nature of HTML.
