title: ‹md_images› Helper
blurb: Learn to take advantage of helpers that give you a hand using
reference style links to content and images.
---
<%= md_links %>
<%= md_images %>
<%= current_page.data.blurb %>
You’ll notice (as you look at the source files for this help content) that the
first ERB instructions immediately after the frontmatter are:
~~~ erb
<%%= md_links %>
<%%= md_images %>
~~~
These convenience helpers make it relatively simple to include Markdown links
and images using the reference format.
Images
------
Markdown also supports a reference format for images. It looks like this:
~~~ markdown
![this is alt tag content][middlemac-logo-small]
~~~
And will generate this:
![this is alt tag content][middlemac-logo-small]
Here’s the complete result of this helper for this Help Book:
<% code('markdown', :css_class => 'shrink_code') do %>
<%= md_images %>
<% end %>
Note that using reference style Markdown images is performed by the Markdown
processor directly. Using magic prefixes for automatic target-based images
won’t work. However they will work with standard Markdown, non-reference
images. Note how this next example includes the target-specific logo:
{: .note}
~~~ markdown
