Tag img

Render an HTML img tag

Renders an HTML `<img>` element with the image at the specified URL. Like the link tag, URL rewriting will be applied automatically to the value specified in `src`, `page`, or `action` to maintain session state in the absence of cookies. This will allow dynamic generation of an image where the content displayed for this image will be taken from the attributes of this tag.

The base URL for this image is calculated directly based on the value specified in `src`, `page`, or `action` or `page`, or indirectly by looking up a message resource string based on the `srcKey` or `pageKey` attributes. You must specify exactly one of these attributes.

Normally, the `src`, `page`, or `action` that you specify will be left unchanged (other than URL rewriting if necessary). However, there are two ways you can append one or more dynamically defined query parameters to the `src` URL -- specify a single parameter with the `paramId` attribute (at its associated attributes to select the value), or specify the `name` (and optional `property`) attributes to select a `java.util.Map` bean that contains one or more parameter ids and corresponding values.

To specify a single parameter, use the `paramId` attribute to define the name of the request parameter to be submitted. To specify the corresponding value, use one of the following approaches:

- Specify only the `paramName` attribute - The named JSP bean (optionally scoped by the value of the `paramScope` attribute) must identify a value that can be converted to a String.
- Specify both the `paramName` and `paramProperty` attributes - The specified property getter will be called on the JSP bean identified by the `paramName` (and optional `paramScope`) attributes, in order to select a value that can be converted to a String.

If you prefer to specify a `java.util.Map` that contains all of the request parameters to be added to the hyperlink, use one of the following techniques:

- Specify only the `name` attribute - The named JSP bean (optionally scoped by the value of the `scope` attribute) must identify a `java.util.Map` containing the parameters.
- Specify both `name` and `property` attributes - The specified property getter method will be called on the bean identified by the `name` (and optional `scope`) attributes, in order to return the `java.util.Map` containing the parameters.

As the `Map` is processed, the keys are assumed to be the names of query parameters to be appended to the `src` URL. The value associated with each key must be either a String or a String array representing the parameter value(s), or an object whose toString() method will be called. If a String array is specified, more than one value for the same query parameter name will be created.

You can specify the alternate text for this image (which most browsers display as pop-up text block when the user hovers the mouse over this image) either directly, through the `alt` attribute, or indirectly from a message resources bundle, using the `bundle` and `altKey` attributes.

Attributes
Name | Required | Request-time | Type | Description
align | false | true | `java.lang.String` | Where the image is aligned to. Can be one of the following attributes: left - left justify, wrapping text on right right -right justify, wrapping test on left top - aligns the image with the top of the text on the same row middle - aligns the image's vertical center with the text base line bottom - aligns the image with the bottom of the text's base line texttop - aligns the image's top with that of the text font on the same line absmiddle - aligns the image's vertical center with the absolute center of the text absbottom - aligns the image with the absolute bottom of the text font on the same row
alt | false | true | `java.lang.String` | And alternative text to be displayed in browsers that don't support graphics. Also used often as type of context help over images.
altKey | false | true | `java.lang.String` | The message resources key of the alternate text for this element.
border | false | true | `java.lang.String` | The width of the border surrounding the image.
bundle | false | true | `java.lang.String` | The servlet context attribute key for the MessageResources instance to use. If not specified, defaults to the application resources configured for our action servlet.
dir | false | true | `java.lang.String` | The direction for weak/neutral text for this element. Since: Struts 1.3.6
height | false | true | `java.lang.String` | The height of the image being displayed. This parameter is very nice to specify (along with `width`) to help the browser render the page faster.
hspace | false | true | `java.lang.String` | The amount of horizontal spacing between the icon and the text. The text may be in the same paragraph, or be wrapped around the image.
imageName | false | true | `java.lang.String` | The scriptable name to be defined within this page, so that you can reference it with intra-page scripts. In other words, the value specified here will render a "name" element in the generated image tag.
ismap | false | true | `java.lang.String` | The name of the server-side map that this image belongs to.
lang | false | true | `java.lang.String` | The language code for this element. Since: Struts 1.3.6

name | false | true | `java.lang.String` | The name of a JSP bean that contains a `Map` representing the query parameters (if `property` is not specified), or a JSP bean whose property getter is called to return a `Map` (if `property` is specified).

ondblclick | false | true | `java.lang.String` | JavaScript event handler executed when this element receives a mouse double click.
onkeydown | false | true | `java.lang.String` | JavaScript event handler that is executed when this element receives a key down event.
onkeypress | false | true | `java.lang.String` | JavaScript event handler that is executed when this element receives a key press event.
onkeyup | false | true | `java.lang.String` | JavaScript event handler that is executed when this element receives a key up event.
onmousedown | false | true | `java.lang.String` | JavaScript event handler executed when this element is under the mouse pointer and a mouse button is depressed.
onmousemove | false | true | `java.lang.String` | JavaScript event handler executed when this element is under the mouse pointer and the pointer is moved.
onmouseout | false | true | `java.lang.String` | JavaScript event handler executed when this element was under the mouse pointer but the pointer was moved outside the element.
onmouseover | false | true | `java.lang.String` | JavaScript event handler executed when this element was not under the mouse pointer but the pointer is moved inside the element.
onmouseup | false | true | `java.lang.String` | JavaScript event handler executed when this element is under the mouse pointer and a mouse button is released.
paramId | false | true | `java.lang.String` | The name of the request parameter that will be dynamically added to the generated src URL. The corresponding value is defined by the `paramName` and (optional) `paramProperty` attributes, optionally scoped by the `paramScope` attribute
page | false | true | `java.lang.String` | The module-relative path, starting with a slash, of the image to be displayed by this tag. The rendered URL for this image will automatically prepend the context path of this web application (in the same manner as the `page` attribute on the link tag works), in addition to any necessary URL rewriting. You must specify either the `page` attribute or the `src` attribute.
pageKey | false | true | `java.lang.String` | The message key, in the message resources bundle named by the `bundle` attribute, of the String to be used as the module-relative path for this image.

The rendered URL for this image will automatically prepend the context path of this web application (in the same manner as the `action` attribute on the link tag works), in addition to any necessary URL rewriting. You must specify the `action`, `page` attribute or the `src` attribute. Additionally, you can specify a `module` prefix for linking to other modules.
module | false | true | `java.lang.String` | Prefix name of a `Module` that contains the action mapping for the `Action` that is specified by the `action` attribute. You must specify an `action` attribute for this to have an effect. Note: Use "" to map to the default module.
paramName | false | true | `java.lang.String` | The name of a JSP bean that is a String containing the value for the request parameter named by `paramId` (if `paramProperty` is not specified), or a JSP bean whose property getter is called to return a String (if `paramProperty` is specified). The JSP bean is constrained to the bean scope specified by the `paramScope` property, if it is specified.
