clip and vertical center

[sogc]

I have a big problem. I need to vertically align an image and clip it at the same time. My images are randomly different sizes each time the user refreshes the screen, hence the need to "clip" them. But the problem is the the vertical alignment code that I have found on the boards doesn't work because the clip feature needs to use position: absolute.

Thoughts?

Instead of putting the image in there directly as an IMG element, try putting in a DIV and setting the [tt]background-image[/tt] property via CSS. That way, your image will be clipped to whatever size the DIV is.

How are you doing vertical alignment without using absolute positioning?
