I am having problems posting images to my blogs.
I put in the tag <img scr="http://mysite.com/myimage.jpg"/> and the
blog program mixes up the tag.
On the status page of Internet Explorer, it tells me that it is
downloading http://not-a-real-namespace/http://mysite.com/myimage.jpg

What's going on here?

It looks like you may have several errors:

1. (It's) img src (NOT) img scr

2. (omit the slash at the end) /

3. (close the image tag, add) </a>

IOW - I think it should look like this:

<img src="http://mysite.com/myimage.jpg"></a>

The above is the syntax for HTML pages. YMMV if your blog has different
rules.

not so. modern coding calls for that end / in any tag which doesn't
utilize a separate closing tag such as </a>

ie:

<p/>
<br/>

hth. hand.
 
3. (close the image tag, add) </a>

IOW - I think it should look like this:

<img src="http://mysite.com/myimage.jpg"></a>

incorrect. the </a> would close a link tag such as:
<a href="etc.html">click here</a>

an image tag has no separate closing value, therefore it would be
apropos to close it with an embedded / such as:

<img src="image.jpg"/>

once again, hth.

My bad. You're right, I had my eyes crossed.

I reserve comment. ;)

I am sorry everyone, I mistyped when I posted this. I know I am doing
everything right. It is the blogger people who are messing up. I sent
them a note already, but I am not sure if they can answer. I don't have
problems putting image tags on anything else, just here with blogger. I
was wondering if anyone else uses blogger.com and if they had this
problem. Thanks for catching me on my typo!

Regards,

Adam
