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 -----Original Message----- From: "Likely, James A." <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Thu, 8 May 2008 16:22:27 To:<wsg@webstandardsgroup.org> Subject: [WSG] Images 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?
