Revision Content

{{non-standard_header}}

Summary

The HTML <image> element was an experimental element designed to display pictures. It never was implemented and the standard {{HTMLElement("img")}} element must be used.

Do not use this! In order to display images, use the standard {{HTMLElement("img")}} element.

Note that up to Firefox 22, though not supported, an <image> element was associated with an {{domxref("HTMLSpanElement")}}. It was then fixed and is now associated with a {{domxref("HTMLElement")}} as requested by the specification.
