I noticed that Firefox ignores img height and width.
This can be demonstrated with the simple code pasted below (or, just go
to http://wpkg.org/test.html).
The code below points to a non-existing image (or an image which can't
be fetched).
In IE or Konqueror, we will see a 400px x 200px blank space.
In Firefox and Seamonkey we just don't have any blank space (specified
by height and width), so website look will likely break without an image.
Which browser's behaviour is correct?
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
<html><head><meta content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1"
http-equiv="content-type">
<title>test</title>
</head>
<body>
<table style="text-align: left; width: 100%;" border="1" cellpadding="2"
cellspacing="2">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>
<img style="width: 400px; height: 200px;" alt="Image file missing"
src="no_such_image.jpg"><br>
IE will show a 400px x 200px blank space. Firefox will not show any
blank space, although we specified image width and height.
</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
<br>
</body>
</html>
