Insert folder name in text string

Hi,

I am trying to organize a badly constructed web server. Basically every file is in public_html which is horrendous. There's about 50 images and 20 html files (not counting the css files and pdf docs).

I am trying to update each .html file using sed based on:
Where string contains *.jpg or *.gif or *.png
insert 'images/' before the filename.
i.e current HTML is
Code:
img src="image.jpg"

, I want to insert 'images/' in front of any jpg filename.

I tried
Code:
 sed 's/*.jpg /images/g' *.html

, but didn't work it just screen printed the file contents without updating anything.

Any help would be appreciated

Thanks

Enginama
