How to limit an image size to AxB?

I need to display pictures, but only as large as AxB. If it is smaller than
AxB, then I will display it in the original size, if it is larger than AxB,
I will resize it.

However, if the size is 100x200, but I limited it to 50x60, then if I use
height x width, the image does not display well. So, I want it to srink is a
ratio of the original size, so it is will be from 100x200 to 30x60.

How can I do it if it is hosted on my server, -- Any server side image
program to change sizes?

How can I do it if it is hosted remoted, and I only use the src hot link, --
so I must find a way to do it in Javascript to resize it.

I didn't realise this was going to comp.lang.javascript

If you were regular in AWW you would know that there are certain issues
between me and the "atec" character.

Therefore my initial feeling that you are a total wanker, is slightly
off.

Image Elements have a "width" & "height" properties (according to the
book I'm reading, javascript: The Difinitive Guide)

Maybe using the getElementsByName() method might be of use.

<img name="thumbnail" src="pic1.gif>
<img name="thumbnail" src="pic2.gif>
<img name="thumbnail" src="pic3.gif>

<script>
var maxWidth=50, maxHeight=60;
var imgs = document.getElementsByName("thumbnail");
if (imgs.length >0) {
for (var i = 0; i < imgs.length; i++) {
if (imgs[i].width > maxWidth || img[i].height > maxHeight) {
imgs[i].width = maxWidth;
imgs[i].height = maxHeight;
}
}
}
</script>
(note untested code) and that I'm no expert so don't even know if the
above will work :P

This will deform the pictures !

The immediate method would be using the CSS properties max-width and
max-height. That is:

<img src="someImg.png" style="max-width:50px;max-height:60px;">

However, support is flakey. Opera and Mozilla doesn't agree on what to
do. Opera preserves aspect, Mozilla doesn't (it's Opera's behavior
that is correct according to CSS 2.1), and IE doesn't understand a
word of it, as usual.

So, you'll need Javascript, which means that you are in the correct
group.

(Followup-To set to comp.lang.javascript. When you crosspost, *please*
remember to set Followup-To to the most appropriate group)
However, if the size is 100x200, but I limited it to 50x60, then if I use
height x width, the image does not display well. So, I want it to srink is a

Try this:
---
<script type="text/javascript">
function restrictImage(image, x, y) {
var w = image.width;
var h = image.height;
if (w > x) {
h = h * (x/w);
w = x;
}
if (h > y) {
v = v * (y/h);
h = y;
}
image.width = Math.floor(w);
image.height = Math.floor(h);
}
</script>
<img src="../../PicA.png" onload="restrictImage(this,40,70);">
---

It's tested in IE 5+, Mozilla FireFox and Opera 7.5. It doesn't work in
Netscape 4 or Opera 6 (since they don't allow reflowing of the page after
loading).
How can I do it if it is hosted on my server, -- Any server side image
program to change sizes?
That would probably be overkill if the images are fairly small. If
they are multi-megabyte images, then they *should* be reduced on the
server to prevent unnecessary transfer overhead. I don't know much
about server side programming, but I believe that some installations
of PHP has image manipulation functions installed.
How can I do it if it is hosted remoted, and I only use the src hot link, --

The above works to some extent. If you want it to work in browsers
like Netscape 4, you need to do some extra work ... or go for a server
side solution.

Try ImageMagick or GD.

but not here (AWW) - AspImage works well for this purpose.

Correct. The main point of my message was to say that images have a
width & height property.

I've just done some tests and netscape 7.1 doesn't have clientWidth &
clientHeight on images so .width & .height will need to be used, and
the "scaling" code will need to be worked out another way. as NS
didn't scale both properties.

Yes, I know your code works great in IE. It will depend on if the OP
wants it to work in NS7.1 or just IE.

Please review my code.


I did do thanks :)

Please review my code.

This will not work, as w = imgs[i].width; will always be 200.

leave out the 3 'width="200" height="100"'

<script type="text/javascript">

var maxWidth=50, maxHeight=60;
var imgs = document.getElementsByName("thumbnail");
if (imgs.length >0) {
This 'if ...' is superfluous,
as the 'var i = 0;i < imgs.length' will take care of it.
for (var i = 0; i < imgs.length; i++) {
w = imgs[i].width;
h = imgs[i].height;
if (w > maxWidth || h > maxHeight) {
if (w > maxWidth) {
h = h * (maxWidth/w);
Why would you want to specify the height here as the browser will do this
itself from the width correction? (*)
[IE certainly, others probably: otherwise delete the //s below]
w = maxWidth;
}
if (h > maxHeight) {
If both h and w are oversize, this second condition will overwrite the
first, resulting sometimes in a w that is far larger than maxWidth.
You really need this 'if (w/h > maxWidth/maxHeight) ...'

w = w * (y/maxHeight);
Same objection as in (*), but reversed.
h = maxHeight;
}
imgs[i].width= w;
imgs[i].height = h;
}
}
}
</script>


===============

So I would suggest this:

<br><img name="thumbnail" src="my1.gif">
<br><img name="thumbnail" src="my2.gif">
<br><img name="thumbnail" src="my3.gif">

<script type="text/javascript">

var maxWidth=50, maxHeight=60;

var imgs = document.getElementsByName("thumbnail");
for (var i = 0; i < imgs.length; i++) {
w = imgs[i].width;
h = imgs[i].height;
if (w > maxWidth || h > maxHeight) {
if (w/h > maxWidth/maxHeight) {
imgs[i].width = maxWidth;
// imgs[i].height = h * (maxWidth/w);
// perhaps necessary in some nonIE browsers?
} else {
imgs[i].height = maxHeight;
// imgs[i].width = h * (maxHeight/w);
// perhaps necessary in some nonIE browsers?
}
}
}

</script>
