Courses Plus Student 1,808 PointsImages not shown as links, neither are caption below images
Hello, I've followed the course in my Workspace step by step, however my images do not show the link, nor are the captions below every image clickable? I added part of my code below? What do I do wrong? Anyone?

Reggie's suggestion about checking the folder name for the images is a good idea, but I'm not sure it explains what you are seeing. If the folder is wrong, the images just will not appear (most browsers will substitute a little placeholder symbol for them), but the link substitute and the caption should still be clickable.
Is there perhaps some JavaScript and/or CSS that goes with this HTML code that may be causing the difference?

Courses Plus Student 1,808 PointsThank you for your effort, I will try your suggestions. Can it also has anything to do perhaps with the browser? I use Firefox.

Courses Plus Student 1,808 Points@Steven Parker & @Reggie Sibley, just solved it with your help, tnx! I indeed changed the folder into img and changed the location in code/index.html accordingly and now the captions/txt below the images changed into links?! I didn't quite expect that behaviour, but I worked!

It appears to me that your file location is wrong (assuming you are following the course) your pictures should be located within the "img" folder not the "images" folder you have entered, so they browser is not able to locate those images. Try switching it around, and hopefully this helps.
