Editing HTML code to add funtion?

I haven't been able to figure out how to add the code supplied by the Better
Business Bureau to make the seal on my web site funtion? I have the seal image
in my site root image folder. Their instructions aren't very clear. I've pasted
the instructions and code below;

These are their instructions;

To upload the image, you may need to contact your website host. Once the
image is uploaded, be sure to remember where you saved the image on your site.
You can verify the upload by going to the URL of the image (e.g.,
http://www.yourwebsite.com/folder/bbbseal1.gif\). If you see the image, you are
ready for the next step. If not, check your URL to be sure it has the correct
path name.
Now that the image is on your website, you need to place it on your home page.
To do this, you will need to open the home page in your HTML editor, and copy &
paste this entire line where you want the graphic:

This is the code;

title="Click to verify BBB accreditation and to see a BBB report." border=0
src="bbbseal1.gif" alt="Click to verify BBB accreditation and to see a BBB
report." oncontextmenu="alert('Use without permission is prohibited. The BBB
Accredited Business seal is a trademark of the Council of Better Business
Bureaus, Inc.'); return false;" />

The text either ends up showing on the web page or when it hasn't appeared on
the page as text it doesn't funtion? I

Thanks for your time and help, this code stuff is all Greek to me!

Best regards,
Pete

You don't have all the code.

this code stuff is all Greek to me

Unless you are willing to change that (learn HTML & CSS) your attempts at
web design will be fraught with frustration.

Or you can use something like your host's free, drag & drop,
fill-in-the-blanks web design software. That will produce at best mediocre
websites but you won't have to learn code.

The code you supplied isn't complete, it's not a complete HTML statement. That's your problem.

Thanks Joey, that helps explain the problem. I'll contact the BBB as they
provided the code and see what they can do. I'm not a programer, just the guy
that wears many hats here for our company and is currently trying to develop
our web site. Funny thing, the links in their E-mail don't work either, scary
huh?

Thanks for the quick reply, I can move on with tweaking the rest of the sites
pages for now.

Best regards,
Pete

I believe your code would be this -

<img title="Click to verify BBB accreditation and to see a BBB report."
border=0
src="bbbseal1.gif" alt="Click to verify BBB accreditation and to see a BBB
report." oncontextmenu="alert('Use without permission is prohibited. The BBB
Accredited Business seal is a trademark of the Council of Better Business
Bureaus, Inc.'); return false;" />

But you can get rid of that ridiculous contextmenu stuff - it's too cheesy
for words, in addition to being invalid HTML.

I'm not a programer...

Apparently you did not want to even acknowledge what I wrote in my first
response. No problem, I don't deter easily.

Programmers are not by definition web designers/developers although a
programmer can probably learn to design and build websites. And website
designers/developers are not programmers... necessarily. There is no
programming per se in web design, only scripting.

Funny thing, the links in their E-mail don't work either, scary huh?

Are you referring to this link
http://www.yourwebsite.com/folder/bbbseal1.gif\?

Wonder what should be done with the "yourwebsite" part....

Based on the context as I read it, that is to be changed to the user's URL
and point to wherever they placed the image file.
