I was creating a TextEdit html document using my Mac Book Pro laptop. I followed the directives to edit TextEdit preferences that would allow my browser of choice to successfully interpret my document's code. Unfortunately, the image I attempted to include in my html document always failed to show and the dreaded boxed question mark appeared. After checking several online resources for suggestions, I came across a Mac Forum where one of the advisors offered the following suggestion for Mac users who were running the most updated Mac operating system available as of 2017: the user needs to open the TextEdit preferences and, in addition to choosing Plain Text and Display HTML, you must "uncheck" the boxes for Smart quotes and Smart dashes. After following this advice, I rewrote the html code document and the image appeared without issue. |
