Question

I tried to do so but it didn't change the size:

<div style="height:42px;width:42px">
   <img src="http://someimage.jpg">
</div>

What will re-size it (I can't edit/touch the img element itself).

Thanks in advance.

Was it helpful?

Solution

I'm not sure about what you mean by "I have no access to image" But if you have access to parent div you can do the following:

Firs give id or class to your div:

<div class="parent">
   <img src="http://someimage.jpg">
</div>

Than add this to your css:

.parent {
   width: 42px; /* I took the width from your post and placed it in css */
   height: 42px;
}

/* This will style any <img> element in .parent div */
.parent img {
   height: 100%;
   width: 100%;
}

OTHER TIPS

Apply 100% width and height to your image:

<div style="height:42px;width:42px">
  <img src="http://someimage.jpg" style="width:100%; height:100%">
</div>

This way it will same size of its parent.

Yours:

  <div style="height:42px;width:42px">
  <img src="http://someimage.jpg">

Is it okay to use this code?

  <div class= "box">
  <img src= "http://someimage.jpg" class= "img">
  </div>

  <style type="text/css">
  .box{width: 42; height: 42;}
  .img{width: 20; height:20;}
  </style>

Just trying, though late. :3 For someone else reading this, letme know if the way i wrote the code were not good. im new in this kind of language. and i still want to learn more.

Actually using 100% will not make the image bigger if the image is smaller than the div size you specified. You need to set one of the dimensions, height or width in order to have all images fill the space. In my experience it's better to have the height set so each row is the same size, then all items wrap to next line properly. This will produce an output similar to fotolia.com (stock image website)

with css:

parent {
   width: 42px; /* I took the width from your post and placed it in css */
   height: 42px;
}

/* This will style any <img> element in .parent div */
.parent img {
   height: 42px;
}

without:

<div style="height:42px;width:42px">
    <img style="height:42px" src="http://someimage.jpg">
</div>

I am doing this way:

<div class="card-logo">
    <img height="100%" width="100%" src="http://someimage.jpg">
</div>

and CSS:

.card-logo {
    width: 20%;
}

I prefer this way, as if I need to upscale - I can use 150% as well
