  Attempting to import link from IndieBound: Instead of the image which should appear in my blog post, I get the code, which looks like:

  <img style=”border: 1px solid #000″ src=”http://images.booksense.com/images/books/0-9/-30/FC978-1-77102-300-9.JPG” onerror=”this.src = ‘http://www.indiebound.org/files/book_not_found.jpg’;” />
  Shop Indie Bookstores

  How do I get it to show the image instead?

  Hi Kerry,

  Can you give me a link to the page you are trying to link to in your blog post? When I try to visit the link you provided here, I get a “Book not found!” error on the IndieBound website.

  If you know that the link you have is correct, you can paste the link code into the text editor when you are creating your blog post. This should turn the code into the linked image in your post.

  Please let me know if you have any questions about this!

  Hi Rachel:

  Thanks for the tip. I seem to have accidently stumbled upon this solution on my own, but now I understand a little better why it works! All seems to be working now.
