Challenge: Add Images to Your Website

Hi @tej_17 !

Welcome to the forum!

You are using the wrong url here

Here is the correct one from the directions.
Now set the src attribute so that it points to the url https://cdn.freecodecamp.org/curriculum/cat-photo-app/relaxing-cat.jpg

thanks for your response , but may I know how did you identified that I used a wrong one ??
I mean how will I know what kind of url I need to use further ?

A lot of people make this mistake where they misunderstand the instructions.

The url that you were using was for the example on how to create an img.

This is an excerpt from the directions.
An example of this would be:

<img src="https://www.freecatphotoapp.com/your-image.jpg">

But later on in the directions, it tells you do to this.
Let’s try to add an image to our website:

Within the existing main element, insert an img element before the existing p elements.

Now set the src attribute so that it points to the url https://cdn.freecodecamp.org/curriculum/cat-photo-app/relaxing-cat.jpg

Like I said, most people make this mistake and copy the first url they see without reading the full directions.

The example code is never going to be the exact answer for the challenge.
That would be to easy. :grinning:

The example is to just show you how it is done.

Hope that makes sense.
