You can simply set the height as an attribute of the image element:
<img src="foo.jpg" height="50">
But I think that will not preserve the aspect ratio (i.e. your pictures
will look squashed), not to mention the scaling problems mentioned
earlier in this thread.
If you're using a scripting language to build these pages, you can
probably use some functions to get the dimensions of the image and then
set the height and width accordingly on the image tag. e.g. if your
image is 300x500, you could write an image tag like so:
<img src="foo.jpg" width="30" height="50">
That would preserve the aspect ratio.
FYI, top posting often makes people in this group less inclined to help.
