I am building a few websites and always have this same problem with css.
I have two images inside a div container.
When i put for example a text inside a div the div takes the heigth of the text but when i put an image in for some for me unknown reason the div suddenly seems to have a default heigth.
As you can see i have made the size of the images responsive in my css. I ve involved a color on the div just to give a clearer look on what happens.
When i narrow my browser screen the heigth of the div stays equal ( thus not being responsive) and for some reason the images are pushed down inside the div.
How can i solve this.I want the div container height to be responsive as the images inside are and holding the same height as the images and as i narrow the browser screen.
Last but not least ... what is it that i do not understand ?
Thank you for helping me out.
My code
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title></title>
</head>
<body>
<div style="background-color:red;">
<img style="height:2vw; width:4vw;" src="image.jpg" alt="en">
<img style="height:2vw; width:4vw;" src="image.jpg" alt="en">
</div>
</body>
</html>
If you want the parent div to have a certain size, you should enforce dimension on the div and inherit its properties to its children...
div{
height: 50vh;
width: 50vw;
background: red;
}
div>img{
height: 100%;
width: 100%;
}
<div>
<img src="image.jpg" alt="text">
</div>
you should try adding display: block; to <img> tag.
I hope this help.
If you aren't using Bootstrap or another css framework, maybe you need to add reset.css file to your project. Example of reset: https://meyerweb.com/eric/tools/css/reset/
Please check this. I think it will help you. codepen
div{background-color:red;width:200px;overflow:hidden;}
div img{height:auto; max-width:100%;display:block;}
<div>
<img src="image" alt="text">
</div>
Try using max-width:100% on the image. This will keep it's size limited to it's parent size.

Why is it so difficult (or as one answer said, "It is not possible.") to center an arbitrary image horizontally? I have had centralized images working for several years; suddenly they sit obstinately at the left. Has there been some recent change in CSS that causes this?
I expect the code below, modified from the CSS DIY, to work, but it does not.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html><head>
<style>
img { display:block; }
</style>
</head>
<body>
<h2>Thumbnail Images</h2>
<p> ... </p>
<div style="margin: 0 auto;">
<img src="paris.jpg" alt="Paris"
width=15% >
</div>
</body></html>
I realize that scaling an image by percent width is (for no known) reason disallowed, but Jukka advised me to use it anyway, because it works in all browsers I have tried and does exactly what I want, which is to maintain image size proportional to page width. If I float the image right or left it works fine, and I can run a caption alongside the image, but the obvious 'margin : 0 auto;' fails, for no good reason I can see.
Margin : Auto
You can set the margin property to auto to horizontally center the element within its container.
The element will then take up the specified width, and the remaining space will be split equally between the left and right margins
Add
img {
display:block;
margin: 0 auto;
}
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<h2>Thumbnail Images</h2>
<p> ... </p>
<div>
<img src="https://www.w3schools.com/css/trolltunga.jpg" alt="Paris" >
</div>
</body>
</html>
You should add the styles
display:block;
margin: 0 auto;
To your img element
<div style="width:100%;background:skyblue;">
<img style='display:block;width:25%;margin:0 auto;' src='https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQvl0jMbupgXjeP66hak-u3uwUPcqI3Ovx7zqiWkVhav2V8FjeY1A'/>
</div>
I have an image whose size I know.
<img class="example" src="img.jpg" width="1024" height="768" />
I want to have the width and height attributes set so it can layout where the image will be before it's downloaded. The image may take a second or two to come in, so when it does, I don't want the page to suddenly jump.
However, I also want the image to have width: 100%. Is there a way to achieve this using CSS?
I tried
.example {
width: 100%;
height: auto;
}
However, this ignores the aspect ratio I specified in the HTML. Is there a way I can use the width and height attributes defined in the HTML to keep the aspect ratio, but have the image to have width: 100% (i.e. the width of the parent)?
I don't want to use JS to achieve this, I don't want to hard code the proportions in CSS, and I'd rather not do any margin/padding hacks to achieve this.
Edit
Really, I'm just seeing if there's a better way of doing it than this,

[Update: updated link to fix broken external image url]
JSFiddle Demo
<div style="width:356px; height:452px; background-color:yellow">
<img class="example" src="https://live.staticflickr.com/1427/1370476027_aaf0621679.jpg" width="100%" />
</div>
just provide the width and height to the parent container division which will occupy the space of the image's dimensions while the image will load.
and set the width of the image to 100% and it will take height according to aspect ratio. Just set the background color of your parent div to white or something to blend with the background.
JSFiddle Demo
HTML:
<div style="width:500px; height:300px; background-color:yellow">
<img class="example" src="http://www.finnchat.com/app/uploads/2015/10/Blogi44_metakuva.jpg" width="100%" />
</div>

Hi please try this remove the height and width from img tag
<img class="example" src="img.jpg" />
and css
.example {
width: 100% !important;
height: 100% !important;
}
The only way is by using javascript. Just set width 100% in css, then with javascript get the imatge width an multiply by the aspect ratio to get the desired height.
Nothing seems to be working for me. But what I would like to do is make the header image fit to the size I'd like, which is the container. Heres the actual page link: this.
And heres the jsFiddle here: http://jsfiddle.net/Zorabelle/f7DRh/.
I think this is what I have to fix but I just don't know.
/*HEADER IMAGE DETAILS - HEADER MUST BE 921PX WIDE*/
.header {
background-image: url(http://media.tumblr.com/aceb30d864925524ee215c0d6f88e1bc/tumblr_inline_mu0br62w4R1s7znag.gif);
background-repeat:no-repeat;
height:200px; /*CHANGE TO THE HEIGHT OF YOUR BANNER*/
}
I want the 'Define the Term' header to fill up that whole space. Help?
Here's a working JSFiddle example: http://jsfiddle.net/f7DRh/2/
You can set the image size to container by specifying:
background-size:100% 100%;
That way it will always keep it within container's width and height.
Reference:
http://www.w3schools.com/cssref/css3_pr_background-size.asp
You can also use the traditional replacing your div
<div class="container">
<div class="header">
</div>
becomes
<div class="upcon">
<img src="http://yourimage.com" style="width:100%" />
</div>
By the way, with this method the browser tries to render the image correctly if the user has a resoltion smaller than what your are asking (1050px). It won't crop it.
I want that banner image to fit the white container instead of go over the side to the right, but I can't seem to ignore the margin on the left. I've tried all I know; from max-width to setting the margin at 0px but nothing works.
This is the code I currently have:
<p style="text-align: center;" dir="ltr">
<img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-504" title="bannercommunity"
src="image.png"
alt="" width="960" height="140" />
</p>
Any and all help would be appreciated, thanks!
You can just add width: 100% to the <img>. Note that having the browser resize images is inefficient, so you should avoid it if you can and resize the image to the correct size that you want to use instead.
Although I am against inline styles, I would suggest you to go with this:
CSS Way
.body .wp-image-504.aligncenter { width: 100% !important; }
Screenshot
Remove the width and height values, give the style this way.
Thanks for the help folks, but I discovered that by adding
'position: relative; left: -20px; width: 960px;'
in the styles field did the trick for me. So, setting the position of the image relative to the container, then matching the image width to the width of the container (while adding a minus number in order to nullify the left margin) worked.
In your case, you need to add style="display: inline-block;" to the parent P tag of the image. Or you have to remove style="display: block;" in the "aligncenter" class of this image. Both of them will solve your problem.
Thanks Nick's suggestion, I've revised my answer in comment.
I have the following setup
<div id="outerDiv" style="width:100%;">
<div id="innerDiv">
<center>
<a href="http:/..." title="..">
<img src="http://...jpg" width="800" height="xxx" alt="..">
</a>
</center>
</div>
<div>
The width of the outerDiv can change based on browser view-port. Is there a way to restrict the width on the innerDiv just by using a style attribute, such that it overrides the included image width (800 in this example). Currently the image spans beyond the viewport and I would like the div/browser to shrink the image to the inner-div-size.
Am looking for something like:
<div id="outerDiv" style="width:100%;">
<div id="innerDiv" style="attribute:xxx;" or something similar>
<center>
<a href="http:/..." title="..">
<img src="http://...jpg" width="800" height="xxx" alt="..">
</a>
</center>
</div>
<div>
Please note that : the innerDiv is rendering 'variable' data coming from a stored parameter for instance. I only have control on the style on the innerDiv to make sure that things like 'center' or 'width' on the innerHtml does not go beyond what the outerDiv is setting. I have tried to use 'max-width' on the outer-div, but that didn't seem to work (I am not an expert on html/css - so I could have done it incorrectly).
Many thanks for all your help !
max-width property can help you.
Remove width attribute from img tag and write additional css code:
<style>
#innerDiv { text-align: center; width: 800px; }
#innerDiv a > img { display: inline-block; max-width: 100%; }
</style>
ComFreak has the complete answer.
Remove the center tag and instead add some css. Also add an id to that image if you want to target only that image specifically as far as its size.
#innerDiv {
max-width:800px;
margin:0 auto;}
img {/*use 'img#idOfimage' instead of 'img' if you end up adding an id to image */
width:100%;
height:0 auto;}
This should take care of it. You can put the css in a style tag in the header or better yet in a separate css file.
Don't use center tag. It defentinatly is outdated. Instead use margin: 0 auto; That will center the content. And use the max-width property for the innerDiv id. This is a great reference source. http://www.w3schools.com/cssref/pr_dim_max-width.asp
