html image percentage issue

[Chris]

I am unable display an image by percent. No matter what method I try,
I receive the following error.

Input string was not in the correct format.

No matter what method I use, I cannot get this to show up in a percent
format. What am I missing here.

currentStatusImage.Src = "../builds/images/green.gif"
currentStatusImage.Width = "60%"

Thanks.

currentStatusImage.Width is expecting a Unit, not a string, so you need to
do a Unit.Parse("60%") or a Unit.Percentage(60).

I get an error stating that unit cannot convert to an integer, on both of
those attempts.

It does, the sdk also states that you can also set the value as a
percentage. The problem is that it doesn't give an example or any
detail to that.

"By default, the Width property is expressed in pixels, but it can
also be expressed as a percentage of the window size." - straight from
the windows sdk, and that's all it has to say about it. But how??

It seems you've found a documentation error.

An integer is an integer, not a Unit. You can't use percentage in an
HtmlImage.

Any ideas on how to get around this. In addition to this being an issue,
when I attempt to do the following ( going back to my asp classic way of
thinking ) :

<img border="0" id="currentStatusImage" src="<% = srcInfo %> width="<% =
widthInfo %>%" height="6" runat="server">

I still get the integer error. I'd rather not make this a static image but,
the list of ideas grows smaller. Thanks.

You're still getting the error because you've still got the control marked
as runat="server", which means it's an HtmlImage, which means that the Width
property is an integer.

Do you really need the image to be a server control?

And why not use style="WIDTH:100%" :

currentStatusImage.Style["WIDTH"] = "100%"
