image borders do not show up when html opened in word

W

william.hooper

Here is some simple HTML that displays an image with a border aound
it:

<html>
<head>
<title>New Page 1</title>
</head>
<body>
<p>
<img border="1" src="folder.jpg" width="250" height="250"></p>
</body>
</html>

When I import this into Word 2002 I don't see the borders.

Changing the HTML to us CSS with:

<style type="text/css">
..newStyle1 {
border-color: 1;
border-style: solid;
border-width: 1px;
}
</style>

then:

<img alt="" src="logo.gif" width="494" height="80" class="newStyle1" /
</p>
Click to expand...

does not help.

I havn't found any HTML that puts borders around images and loads OK
in Word 2002.

This is really annoying becuase I am writing an app that exports an
HTML document with images that the user will print in Word.

Please help.... many thanks...

Hi William

I looked up some HTML tutorial, and what it says looks like your code:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<title>Example from SelfHTML</title>
</head>
<body>

<h1>MyTitle</h1>

<p><img src="./Dok1-Dateien/image002.gif" width="320" height="400"
border="4" alt="SomeImage"></p>

</body>
</html>

If I open this in Word 2000, the borders are there. Nowhere near as
thick as in a browser, and depending on the image, they might be hard to
spot, but they are there.

If you really want to go the HTML-route, you could of course create a
border in Word they way you want it to be shown, save as HTML, and then
work backwards ...
