Paths for HTML Images

[random1]

I have a really basic question for paths and HTML.

 

For a basic image HTML tag example I have:

 

<img src="images\example.png" width="100" height="100" />

 

For a relative path (like above src attribute) for a website should you use \ or / to separate directory levels?

 

I think I read somewhere that \ is local and / is remote?

Backslashes are used internally with windows, and never with the web.
