Use WIDTH and HEIGHT Tags For Images

Use WIDTH and HEIGHT tags for images

It is STRONGLY recommended that you always code in image width and height tags. By telling web browsers the size of an image, a page will appear to load faster on a client's machine.

FORMAT:

<IMG SRC="graphic.ext" WIDTH=wd HEIGHT=ht>

graphic.ext - your graphic file
wd = the width, in pixels, of your graphic
ht = the height, in pixels, of your graphic
