For my internet programming class I have to create a XHTML file that has an image in it, among other things. The problem that I am having is that when I open up my file on other computers the image will not load.

To make your code portable on many computers, you should use a relative path like this:
<img src="website/image.jpg" alt="My image"where "website" is the folder your image is located in.
Also, I'm assuming you have the embedded image on the other computer you are viewing the website on... it's an error that others have made.
