Here is a fiddle.
There is a standart trick with display:block; and max-width:100%; for responsive images:
img {
display: block;
max-width: 100%;
}
If I resize the width of the container, my image fits this width and also automatically resizes it's own height. This is very great image behavior! Also it doesn't use Javascript.
So, is it possible to do the same trick by resizing the height of the container? I want this image to fit containers height and also automatically resize it's own width proportionally. Of course, without any Javascript, just CSS or any experimental CSS3 features (I know how to do it with Javascript, really).
Add
max-height: 100%;
Also, try not to work with tables - they behave (more) unpredictably than other display types.
See here a most basic example.
EDIT: Couldn't find a way to do this without JS. I have put two methods for you in here - both could be used easily (I've used jQuery, but you don't have to). If that doesn't suffice, than good luck.

I'm working on an image sharing website for one of my computer science classes, and I've been running into trouble when I try to actually display the images to the user. I've let users tag their images, and display images that match one or more tags. However, when I try to display images with different aspect ratios, it looks quite ugly. I want all of the images to have the same height, but allow their widths to change to keep the aspect ratio.
I can solve my problem easily enough if I put a fixed height for each row (e.g. .row { height: 30vh; }), but I've been running into issues when I try to have a dynamic height.
Potential soultions I've tried:
flex—flex makes the images overlay into each other, and since I don't know the size beforehand, I can't really use .img{ flex: NUMBER; }.
div— I wrapped the imgs in divs, and resized the img to fit. This is the most common answer I've found, except it doesn't work for the same reason as a plain img: I don't know the height beforehand, so I cant set the height of the div. I also tried this with span and that also didn't work.
table—I tried using a table, with a single tr tag, and every image written as <td><img src="..." ></td>, but this also doesn't work, and isn't exactly what I'm looking for; I don't want a table, as I just have a single column.
li—Each separate list element is on a new line, but I want as many to be on the same line as possible, and there's a bullet point. True, I could remove the bullet point and make the lines wrap, but it still doesn't solve the issue.
I could theoretically load all the images via JavaScript or PHP (depending on if I make it server- or client-side), find their width, and use that. However, that seems extremely hacky and I want a better solution.
Here is an example of what it's currently doing. And here is an example of what I want it to do, without forcing the height in the CSS.
I'd like to do this in just pure CSS + HTML if possible, but I'm not sure it's even possible using JavaScript.
Using width: auto will tell the browser to calculate the width based on proportions.
img {
width: auto;
height: 500px;
}
Here's a jsFiddle to show you. I hope this is what you mean.
Below is the code:
img {
max-width:100%;
height:auto;
}
Hi I'm trying to create a Responsive Email Template.
I can't make the background images responsive.
Here is a sample of the images code:
a#learn-more { background-size: 100%; display: block; background: url('http://tophitechgadgets.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/learn-more.png')no-repeat; height: 68px; width: 600px; margin: 0 auto; }
Basically We have the following images that I am having a hard time making fluid (responsive)
-logo (a#learn-more)
-banner image (.banner-img)
-learn more button (a#learn-more)
-image1 and image2
I have my demo here: http://jsfiddle.net/nLxjU/3/
Hope you can edit the code to see what my issue why I cant make them responsive.
I'm really stuck here.
You can use a different div with absolute positioning, and containing the image inside it with percentile width and height, so when the screen size changes, the div (and the image inside it) resizes, too. Just place the div below everything with z-index and you're done.
Email-clients, like Outlook (-Express), Mail (OSX) etc, all use different html-engines, and have a lot of restrictions. Especially Outlook seems to be using a limited IE6 based rendering engine. Background images and styling by css classes don't work, and forget about absolute or relative positioning.
Make sure the template also looks good in these email-clients, unless you only aim at mobile email clients (they seem to support all of this).
Take a look at the standards guide (html/css) at http://www.emailology.org/.
You can improve with the following, but as #Willem says you really need to change your approach if making an email template. Many email clients completely remove the head and strip out styles. Some support a limited set of inline styles for formatting and none for layout. In fact an old-school table layout with inline styles is generally the best way to go.
You might find some of this useful: http://www.campaignmonitor.com/guides/mobile/
As for making the best of what you've got so far:
Your .divider and .banner-img elements were set to 600px wide.
Set them as 100%.
Don't have the banner as a background image.
Size your .lpanel and .rpanel images as 100% of the parent's
width.

I am using simple css code for Profile Image Styling, but Image is stretched. How can i fix it?
Take a look at the Profile Images in this Picture:
Right Now I am Using this Code:
.Comment_Image_Size {
height: 32px;
width: 28px;
}
I also used this Code but in this case some Images are Bigger and some are smaller in height:
.Comment_Image_Size {
width: 28px;
}
Don't fix the image dimensions, I think the project you are working on should be dynamic, if it's yes, than you can also resize the images via server side, if you don't want to do that, and want to stick with HTML and CSS, than use a wrapping element, say div, float it to the left, assign some fix height & width and assign a class, and than use the below snippet to
div.class_name img {
max-width: 100%;
max-height: 100%;
}
This way, your image will resize proportionally and it won't be stretched anymore
Demo (I've attached both examples, you can check out in the demo)
In the above demo, the first one is which I've suggested to you, other is one which you are probably doing, which is stretched, so go for max-height and max-width properties.
best solutoin to give max-width and max-height to your class
.Comment_Image_Size {
max-width:28px;
max-height:32px;
}
The issue is that the original images are not the same aspect ratio. You need to specify the right height and width for each image to ensure that the maximum width/height is not exceeded (one will be less if not the right aspect ratio).
You may need to resize the images upon upload to have thumbnails that are the right size while preserving the aspect ratio How to resize images proportionally / keeping the aspect ratio?
My problem is more or less identical to this question, but with the slight difference that I need to vertically resize it.
What I mean is; according to the information supplied in the article I linked to, the DIV will resize while keeping the aspect ratio if you stretch/contract the browser width, but not if you make the browser window taller/shorter (ie, its height) - I wonder if it's possible to make this work in a CSS-only environment.
TYIA.
If you are dealing with just an image, then setting its width to 100% and removing its height will keep its aspect rate, but obviously will also degrade its quality at great stretchings.
Like this:
img {
width: 100%;
height: auto;
}
No, this isn't possible.
The closest thing that is possible is described in the answer to this question: Make an element's width relative to its height?
...however, that requires introducing an img tag into the source.
I want to display a collection of image thumbnails in a grid. The images will come in a variety of sizes, but I'd like to restrict the thumbnails to a particular size (let's say 200px wide and 150px tall).
What I'd like to find are some magical HTML markup and CSS rules that will
Allow the images to be included in normal <img> elements
Ensure that the thumbnails fit into their 200x150 pixel box, retain their proportions, and are centered in whichever dimension they overflow.
Not require JavaScript or specific knowledge of each image's actual dimensions
I'm not sure if this is possible. I can make a (bad) approximation of what I want with the following markup:
<div class="thumb">
<img src="360x450.jpeg">
</div>
and CSS:
.thumb {
width: 200px;
height: 150px;
overflow: hidden;
}
.thumb img {
min-width: 200px;
min-height: 150px;
width: 200px;
}
This attempt breaks in a variety of ways:
Images that are in portrait orientation will be sized correctly, but will overflow through the bottom of the container, resulting in vertically-off-center cropping.
Images that are wide and short will be distorted in the horizontal dimension because of the hard-coded width and min-height rules.
But without that hard-coded width, images that are larger than the minimum height and width will not be resized at all.
If it's at all helpful, I've put up an example that will (hopefully) illustrate what I'm trying to do, here:
http://overloaded.org/tmp/imgtest/
http://overloaded.org/tmp/imgtest/imgtest.zip
I know that I can solve this problem by omitting the <img> element altogether and instead pulling the thumbnails in as a centered background image on the containing element, but, if it's possible, I'd like to keep the <img> elements in the page.
Thanks for any help or pointers you can provide!
Edit: I suppose I should note that an ideal solution will work in IE 6+ and modern browsers, but any solution that works in IE 9+ and other modern browsers (recent WebKit, Gecko, etc.) will be gladly accepted.
You can (kind of) achieve this with the CSS3 background-size additions: contain and cover.
Live Demo
contain (top picture) fits the entire image, keeping aspect ratio. Nothing is cropped.
cover (bottom picture) fills the containing element either vertically or horizontally (depending on the image) and crops the rest.
Possible, probably.
Also, probably not the best idea. Your big issue to overcome here is orientation of thumbnails. What if you're dealing with a panorama? Certainly, shrinking it down is going to create a very unsightly "squished" image, as would a very tall image. It's rare that everyone deals in 4X3 or 16X9 100% of the time. So, you'll need a mechanism to pad out the image. Even if the ratio is correct, it's not going to resize as cleanly as you could with a program like Photoshop or Gimp.
The other major issue in this thought process is that you're going to be sending massive amounts of unnecessary data to the server via the larger images. It'll take longer to load, fill up the DOM unnecessarily, and overall just inhibit the UI experience.
There are a number of ways to get around this, none of them pure CSS. I've tackled this several times, each in a unique way based on the client. For one client that wanted things totally custom, it was a custom uploader, resizing via iMagick (part of image magic) and custom CSS/Javascript for the album with major interactivity. In another instance, I use Gallery as the backend--handling the thumbnail creation, uploading, titling, cropping, and organizing-- and then just pulled the reformatted image links out of the DB to display them in a more appealing manner. You could save yourself even more trouble and just use something like the Flickr api to pull images for your use.
Here's a tut on using ImageMagick to do thumbnails.
.thumb img {
max-width: 200px;
max-height: 150px;
min-width: 200px;
min-height: 150px;
}
Well I know for thumbs you would want it max and min if you want a smaller image to make it bigger and bigger image to make it smaller.
try to set max-width and height and not min because if the image is not exactly that size it will overflow :)
