do images have opening and closing tags?

Question

in 1st page, there exists that image does not have a closing tag then how it exists a closing tag in below example?? someone clear me pls...

Answer 1

This is the correct syntax in HTML5 (No closing tag needed):
<img src="img.png" alt="">

If you see the following syntax used, it's from the time of XHTML.:
<img src="img.png" alt="" />

Answer 2

@manish That's totally wrong syntax and thinking. 'src' is an attribute for <img>. Attributes can't be outside the < and >.

Answer 3

so <img src="img.jpg"alt="">
is the proper form of html?

Answer 4

so I can use this further right? ??
anyway thank you Zinc for clearing me this..☺☺

Answer 5

yeah absolutely @zinc ... attributes can't be outside <> @manish..

Answer 6

images can have closing tags if we want one of the multiple images to be printed on page
as
<IMG>
SRC="a.png"
SRC="a.jpg"

<IMG>

Answer 7
