max image width

simonj · 12-19-2006, 07:05 PM

Hi, forgive this newbie question...how do you set the maximum width for an image on a webpage without affecting images that are smaller? For instance, I want to limit the size a picture can be if it's too big but I don't want to stretch or resize smaller pictures.

hope I'm making sense,
thanks,
Simon

If you make a css class for images you can do something like this:

max-width:174px;
max-height:174px

In <head> add the following:

Code:

<style type="text/css">
img{max-width:100px;max-height:100px}
</style>

Hope that works!
