Image Sizing - Interesting question

[westcoaststyle]

I'm bringing images in dynamically and I want to size them on the page irregardless of what size they are in the database.

I want to know if there's a way for me to set the width to a specific pixel value and the height will follow suit without me setting the height value.

Say I have an image that's 100x100. If I set width="50", I want the height to automatically know that it should be 50.

Another example: I have an image that's 100x300. I tell the width="50", the height sets itself to 150.

These are just examples so I will not always have images that are the same size so I can't just set height="50%" (I've thought of that).

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Since you're doing this dynamically, just add a field to the db (assuming you use one) saying which form you're using. Default behavior resizes the image's height proportionally as compared with the width or vice versa, so for that, you merely set one. Like this (PHP):

<?
if($row[&quot;form&quot;]==&quot;resize&quot{
print('<img width=&quot;50&quot;>');
}
?>

For the other, if the field says that the size needs to be equal, something like this:

<?
if($row[&quot;form&quot;]==&quot;equal&quot{
print('<img width=&quot;50&quot; height=&quot;50&quot;>');
}
?>

Combine the code:
<?
($row[&quot;form&quot;]==&quot;equal&quot?$ss='height=&quot;50&quot;':$ss=&quot;&quot;;
print('<img width=&quot;50&quot; ' . $ss . '>');
?>

Of course, PHP may be different than what you use, but the logic's the same .
