Images in HTML file

I have created an HTML file to be used as an email attachment.
I have added a photo using img src= but when sending the email the recipient cannot see the photo, presumably because img src= is just a link to the file on my computer.
Is there a way of adding the actual photo to the HTML file?

Thanks in advance
Stephen

You will need to use the absolute path:

Thanks for the quick reply.
I presume for this to work I will need to upload the image to our website and the email recipient will need to be on line when he opens the email.
What I really want to be able to do is add the image to the HTML file so the recipient can see the image when he opens the attachment even if he is not online.
Is this possible?

Since it is an attachment - no. You would need to ZIP the files, send the ZIP file & then they would need to unzip the file so they would have the proper path.

Yes - they would need to be online - but chances are - they will be online at that time since they have to be online to get the email.

Thanks for the help. Looks like I will have to look for another way of achieving what I want to do
