I did a Google search on images for "hortensia". The result was a page of 18 thumbnails. I selected (left click) the first thumbnail and got a frames page. In the top frame (actually a base page and not a frame) is the same thumbnail. The bottom frame has the title "Welcome to Kerfec Gîtes". I selected (again left click) the thumbnail in the top frame and got a very large image. With my cursor over the large image, I right-clicked and selected Properties from the pull-down menu. The Element Properties popup had one section: Image Properties. In that section was an item "Location" with the URI <http://www.brittanygitesandcottages.com/images/hortensia.jpg>. Copying that URI and pasting it into the address area for a new tab, I got the same very large image. Please note that, when you place your cursor over an element on a Web page and then get the properties, you are getting the properties of that element. Thus, when I get the properties of the thumbnail on the frames page (the page that also has "Welcome to Kerfec Gîtes"), the Element Properties popup has two sections: Link Properties and Image Properties. The URI under Link Properties gives me the very large image; this is correct because the thumbnail is a link to the very large image. The URI under Image Properties gives me the thumbnail; this is correct because the Element Properties was generated for the thumbnail. For the very large image, the Element Properties popup had only the one Image Properties section; the page did not contain a link. -- David E. Ross <http://www.rossde.com/>.
