Image height and width not working?

Question

On this post I have set the image height and width and it's clearly seen in the HTML..

[url removed]

But the browser or Wordpress is causing the image to stay same size.

I want it to be smaller?

Answer 1

You must write

<img src="theSource" style="width:30px;height:auto;" />

Inline styling will always take precedence over CSS styling. The width and height attributes are being overridden by your stylesheet, so you need to switch to this format.

Answer 2

You have a class on your CSS that is overwriting your width and height, the class reads as such:

.postItem img {
    height: auto;
    width: 450px;
}

Remove that and your width/height properties on the img tag should work.

Line 11:

.postItem img {
    height: auto;
    width: 450px;
}

You can either edit your CSS, or you can listen to Mageek and use INLINE STYLING to override the CSS styling that's happening:

<img src="theSource" style="width:30px;" />

Avoid setting both width and height, as the image itself might not be scaled proportionally. But you can set the dimensions to whatever you want, as per Mageek's example.
