How do I put an image link in a post? (5 posts)

    In regular html, if I want to put an image on the page so that if I clicked on it it would take me to another page I would code it like this:

    <IMG
    SRC="http://www.mydomain.com/myblog/images/my-image.jpg" BORDER=0 WIDTH=287 HEIGHT=215">

    Where images is a directory I created in my blog.

    If I code the html and put it in a post the actual image does not display (just some icon) and underneath it is SRC="http://www.mydomain.com/myblog/images/my-image.jpg" BORDER=0 WIDTH=287 HEIGHT=215">

    How can I do this inside a post?

    Use the HTML tab in the editor and use something like:

    <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/aasdfafadf/" title="Photo Sharing"><img src="http://static.flickr.com/26/6adfaff0.jpg" width="500" height="494" alt="New Menu Demo" /></a>

    Sorry, I am new to wordpress, so every variation I am trying of what you say above is not working for me, could you please give me step by step instructions?

    The actual code I used did not show up in my first post I will try putting it in quotes so that it is not interpreted into html, the code I used was

    "<img src ="http://www.keithscarr.com/anxietyattacks/images/panic-away.jpg" BORDER=0 WIDTH=287 HEIGHT=215">"

    Jeepers Creepers, putting that in quotes did not help, it turned it into a link on the post. I am going to try again but instead of using < and > I will use $

    $a HREF="http://be44cl70dbzlcl5gh7t6kvit5s.hop.clickbank.net" target="_blank"$ $img src = "http://www.keithscarr.com/anxietyattacks/images/panic-away.jpg" BORDER=0 WIDTH=287 HEIGHT=215"$ $/a$

    Writing a post, using the HTML tab put this:

    <a HREF="http://be44cl70dbzlcl5gh7t6kvit5s.hop.clickbank.net" target="_blank"> <img src = "http://www.keithscarr.com/anxietyattacks/images/panic-away.jpg" BORDER=0 WIDTH=287 HEIGHT=215"> </a>
