Hi - I have the need to generate an image’s width and height from the DB.
Anyone done or heard of this before?
The jQuery used in the front-end requires this to properly format a grid of images. I will know the width of the image inside the grid, but pulling the height is critical.
Unfortunately I cannot leave this to the client to add - if I could I’d use matrix fields.
Thanks, Liam

Amazing what we can accomplish through a good nights sleep… should have thought before I posted here. This was killing me last night. Tried all manner of CSS configurations to get the items to float properly inside ‘masonry’ js.
But the Imgsizer Plugin does a perfect job without needing to change HTML/CSS at all.
It generates automatically generates a matching height from a known width. Proportionately Perfect.
