use local gif file on a web page instead of an internet based gif

Question

I want to use a local file destination path instead of a url in this code so I don't have to be connected to the internet for it to fetch the gif. I've tried a few things across stack but nothing works.

<img src="gif url"alt=""style="width:12px;height:18px;">

try filesystem path, based on your OS. win - `` unix replace src with - file:///home/user/Documents/some.gif or if you have, start a web server (this will perform better that file protocol) inside that path, and call files — marmeladze, Jul 25 '16 at 15:15

I think this should answer your question. Just need a path to the local copy.
