The line of HTML above is called a relative link. It works because the flag files and your Web pages are on the same server.
The World Wide Web server that holds the flag image files is the same one that holds your Web pages: pages.prodigy.com.
/Art/Flags is the name of the subdirectory where the file us.gif is located.
If you wanted to use the complete Web address, or URL, of the medium-size US flag image, it would be: http://pages.prodigy.com/Art/Flags/us.gif.
Note: These links are case-sensitive, so you must enter the upper and lower-case letters just as you see them here.
To display a flag image in one of your Personal Web Pages, copy the HTML line above and enter it in a scrolling text box on your chosen HTML Scratchpad (TM) template, along with any other text you want to include. Don't forget to use the correct name of the flag .gif file for the flag you want to display! The text caption (words next to flag in the example above) is optional.
