How to Add Animated GIFs in HTML
Instructions for Enriching Your Website with Dynamic Content
Step 1: Understanding GIF Animation in HTML
By default, browsers automatically play animated GIFs. You cannot alter this behavior, but if the GIF is static, it will not animate.
Step 2: HTML Tag Integration
To incorporate animated GIFs into your HTML, use the tag with appropriate attributes:
<img src="path/to/animated-gif.gif" alt="Descriptive text"></img>
Step 3: Customizing GIF Attributes
Additional attributes can be added to customize the GIF's appearance and behavior, such as:
- height: Sets the height of the GIF.
- width: Sets the width of the GIF.
- autoplay: Enables automatic playback of the GIF.
- loop: Sets the number of times the GIF will loop (infinite if not specified).
Example: Adding a GIF with Custom Attributes
<img src="path/to/my-fun-gif.gif" alt="Cool animated GIF" height="200" width="300" autoplay loop></img>
