IMG in Sigil

Alesorta · 04-25-2013, 04:24 PM

Hi everyone

I have an issue with sigil and I did not find any way to solve it.

I neet to enclose to my ebook some images, and I want them to have a border.
I applied a border to the tag as follow

Code:

<img src="xxxxx" border="1">

The problem is when I try to validate the document, sigil gives me this message

Code:

attibute 'border' is not declared for element 'img'

I then tried to delet the border attribute, adding on the other hand this code to the css

Code:

img {border: solid black 1px;}

The problem with this second case is that nothing appears around the image.

Any help?

It (the short form)may be order sensitive:

Width
Style
Color

when debugging, try using the long form
border-width: 1px ;
border-style: solid';
border-color: black;

Put border first: <img border="5" alt="" src="../Images/warpsychiatry_pic0010.jpg" />

It just tested it in Sigil and it worked.

That will work, but does it validate?
I think this will validate:

Code:

<img style="border="5"" alt="" src="../Images/warpsychiatry_pic0010.jpg" />

That won't validate but this will:
<img style="border:5px solid black" alt="" src="../Images/warpsychiatry_pic0010.jpg" />

The above example is from w3schools.com.
