Converting photos into HTML code

I'm not speaking of HTML code which merely references
a .JPG file. We're talking about a .JPG photo file that is
rendered into real HTML code. I've seen it before. Now ...
where can I find a program or online website that will do
this?
 
Ideally, he'll be able to find an example for us to read.
I haven't ever seen that capability in HTML.
If it's there, I'd like to know, too.

Hi Stephen,

Could you kindly bottom post in this news group? Please.

Bottom posting and trimming superfluous text is the preferred
method of replying to posts in a.c.f. and a.c.f.d.

Bottom-posting is preferred by those who'd rather imitate than think.
What's really best is to do what makes sense at the particular time.

Trimming is still a good idea.
Thank You Very Much :-)

And Ahoy Mate started a new thread...if you are looking for him/her.

Please do not reply to my bottom-posting comment unless you have
something intelligent to say. There is far to much vicious bullshit on
this subject already,

Excuse me. I didn't realize alt.windows-me has been brought into all
this.

The only thing I can think of is the .mhtml/ .mht format, which can
combine multiple formats into a single file. AFAIK, only IE supports
this MS-based format, but I've heard that W3C is wanting to adopt it as
a standard.

These are great links Susan. Back in another lifetime, I was doing this
kind of stuff by hand, and found it ultra-laborious... and that's
probably what absorbed the total of the former life! :)

Hi Alan,

Thanks. I *knew* I'd seen a page about converting images to HTML -
couldn't find the one I remembered - so I went hunting . . .

Thank you .. Thank you .... Thank you ... Susan Bugher (interesting surname)
for the definitive path to what I was talking about. I delight in
smug-humor at
the thought of all the nay-sayers and poo-pooers saying that this was an
impossibility.

Many other responded with helpful, but erroneous notions that I was really
looking
for common digitalized pictures, or pictures rendered to some kind of text
matrix,
or common html which still referred to the necessary adjunct .jpg picture...
all
despite my explicit explanations of what the thing was I had seen .. like
yourself.
Apparently, I was not as adept as you at searching. So, thanks ever so
much.

I learned early on not to say no-such-program in *this* group - I think
I did it once . . . ;)

YW. I'm just stubborn. It was a hard one to search for - can't remember
what the winning search was - but I tried a lot of combinations. Now
would someone *please* tell me what percentage of computers have MS Word
- haven't been able to find that info yet - and I've tried a *lot* of
searches . . .

Here would be the *worst* place to ask. You'll get a barrage of replies
telling you that *no* computer *should* have it and why don't you try
some half baked alternative, then things about bloat, security holes,
evil Bill... But sorry, I don't know a figure for this. I think it will
vary quite a bit though, depending on the userbase you're looking at.

This does not directly answer your question, but it's all I've
got ....

I don't think there are hard figures available. Around 1998-9 I know
MS' share of the office suite market was estimated at 90%, haven
steadily risen through the 1990s. When OpenOffice.org released 1.0
last year, there were a lot of articles written that still put MS
Office in the 90% market share range. Searching for "office
suite"+"market share" will turn up several such estimates.

The real trick there is what version of word. WordPad can read (Ithink)
Word 6.0 files but word 2000 files I make are sometimes garbage to 97
users. And my 9 is going on obsolete with the intro of 11...sheesh!

BTW, Doesn't Word convert JPGs to HTML if you save as HTML? or does it
merely embed the original JPG?

Yes. I'd gotten that far - I stated the question badly.

A little background:

some time ago . . .
I said: this is a nice app to do xxxx.
She said: well, I always do that in Word
I said: but not everybody *has* word
She said: well, almost everybody does
I said: only one out of the first four computers I can think of
(your computer, my computer . . . .)

So my real question is: What percentage of *everybody* has Word?

It *seemed* like a simple question . . . :)
