Glad you like the plugin. I thought just setting one of the dimensions allowed the other to grow or shrink accordingly, i.e. width:150px;? At least in most browsers…

yes, in most but unfortunately not in IE 6.0

Re: images aspect ratio: unchanged

The page looks OK in Safari – but I guess it would. Don’t know if this has anything useful for you …

Re: images aspect ratio: unchanged

That’s totally bizarre. In my IE6.0 here, refreshing the page will sometimes display the top picture in a perfect 4:3 aspect and other times the same picture will be stretched in the Y axis. What’s going on?!

Re: images aspect ratio: unchanged

It gets worse, I’ve seen differences between IE6 & IE6. No that’s not a typo. I can set pages up to make my little PC laptop happy but then other people with IE6 SP2 (I think) get dodgy results. Thank goodness for Total Validator, Net Renderer & Browser Shots.

And remember that Windows itself change some things. x64 or 32, SP3 or below. And same goes to other browsers too, and remember to multiple that with different platforms: Windows, Mac, 101 Linuxes.

But almost all of those differences are really small, doable, fixable plus those don’t usually even show up, only when you try to make something fantastic with CSS (floating relative div containing absolute positioned link containing hover efected spans with gradient made with parent spans).
