Explanation
The img tag specifies an image. Many browsers can display images of file formats (JPEG and GIF), while old browsers may not display ones of PNG file format. An alpha channel might not be reflected especially in PNG file format with alpha channel.
In XHTML, describe like <img src="URL" />.
