I was just experimenting with html and wanted to know how I could make a simple web page with a hyperlink to a picture on my desktop.

Heres the code, but what is wrong with it? Thanks.

<html>
<head>
This is about linking.
</head>
<title>
my picture
</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Here I will link to<a> href="C:\Documents and settings\all

users\desktop\cassavetes002.jpg"a picture on hard drive</a><h1>
<body>
</html>

I believe (I could be wrong) that you have to be running your own webserver, i.e. not be on someone elses webspace such as apache or something.

Also your code for the link won't work as is.
Code:
<h1>
Here I will link to
     <a href="C:\Documents and settings\all users\desktop\cassavetes002.jpg">a picture on hard drive
     </a>
</h1>


Try that instead.
