I’m working on a client site that I built using a responsive layout. By default, EE is adding “width” and “height” properties to images added to a post via a text area field. It’s imperative that EE doesn’t do this and I can’t find a why to prevent it. Am I missing something here or is there system file that I can edit to keep it from doing this? Thanks.

I don’t know of a way you can turn that off, but your CSS should over-ride image size attributes anyway…

img { max-width: 100%; height: auto; }

Will constrain the image to fit inside it’s parent container, if smaller than the available space it will just show at it’s native size.

Thanks for the reply, Rob! I’m using “max-width: 100%” but I don’t know why I didn’t think of “height: auto” to override the height. Guess I’m working too late into the night…

I’d still love to keep EE from inserting the width and height if at all possible. Anybody know of a way?

Thanks for the assist, Rob!
Not that I’m aware of other than by hacking.

You could make a feature request, or do what you’re doing right now, because other text areas might make sense to have it there. I can move this over to the Community Help forum for additional community support.

Thanks, Sue. I guess I’ll just stick with what I’m doing right now and make a feature request. It makes sense to have the option to override it.

Sounds good. 😊 If anything else comes up, please do let us know in a new thread..
