Images

The graphic formats Wireless Bitmap (WBMP), static GIF (*.gif 87a), animated GIF
(*.gif 89a) are supported. The static graphics area is a maximum of 122 pixels wide
and 96 pixels high, but vertically and horizontally scrollable up to the maximum
deck size (2.8kbit). The animated GIF graphics area is a same than static graphics
area. Images fitting in the graphics area are centred unless specified otherwise by
the service provider.
However, displaying images is optional and can be turned off in browser appearance
settings. Images can also be used inside a table and as a link (see example 4-2
above). An image that functions as a link is represented with a full-line frame
around it. There cannot be text next to an image; the image will always start its own
line.
Figure 4-1
If a requested image does not exist or could not be fetched, a small default picture
will be shown. It is also recommended to use the image alt attribute value as an
alternative textual representation for the image.

<img alt="part cldy" src="file://.../partcldy.wbmp"/>
