Hi James,

By specifying the dimensions in the markup, you're helping the browser to know 
what space is taken up while it is fetching the files. This means the page 
doesn't jog up and down as images are loaded.

Cheers,

Tony

I have a quick question and would like your thoughts. 
I am working with a team of coders that code images like: 
<img src="/images/18-digestive-diseases-2col.jpg" alt="Digestive Diseases" 
border="0" height="150" width="388" /> 
My question is, do you need the border, height, and width or should that be 
done in the style sheet or is it needed? 
<img src="/images/18-digestive-diseases-2col.jpg" alt="Digestive Diseases" /> 
Thoughts? 
Thanks 
James
