HTML Checking for Large Sites

Both <table> and <td> elements no longer accept a width attribute. Instead, you should use CSS as in this example:

<table style="width:100%;">
  <tr>
    <td style="width:50px;">Name</td>
  </tr>
</table>

The <table> element does not accept a height attribute. Use CSS instead.

The width and height attributes on <img> elements expect a digit to specify the dimension in pixels. It should not contain units, letters or percent signs.

You can achieve this using CSS instead, for example:

<!-- Invalid syntax, the height attribute expects only digits -->
<img src="photo.jpg" alt="cat" height="auto" />

<!-- Valid syntax using CSS -->
<img src="photo.jpg" alt="cat" style="height: auto"  />

The sizes attribute is used to complement the srcset attribute on an <img> tag for responsive images. When this attribute is present, all image candidates must specify its width.

The attributes width and height of <iframe> elements expect a non-negative integer, so an empty string is not allowed. Either define the correct dimension, or remove this attribute.

The attributes width and height of <img> elements expect a non-negative integer, so an empty string is not allowed. Either define the correct dimension, or remove this attribute.

To query for the size of the viewport (or the page box on page media), the width, height and aspect-ratio media features should be used, rather than device-width, device-height and device-aspect-ratio, which refer to the physical size of the device regardless of how much space is available for the document being laid out. The device-* media features are also sometimes used as a proxy to detect mobile devices. Instead, authors should use media features that better represent the aspect of the device that they are attempting to style against.

The width media feature describes the width of the targeted display area of the output device. For continuous media, this is the width of the viewport including the size of a rendered scroll bar (if any).

In the following example, this media query expresses that the style sheet is only linked if the width of the viewport 768px maximum:

<link rel="stylesheet" media="only screen and (max-width: 768px)" href="styles.css">

In the following example, this media query expresses that the style sheet is only linked if the width of the viewport is greater than 768px:

<link rel="stylesheet" media="only screen and (min-width: 768px)" href="styles.css">

The sizes attribute is used to complement the srcset attribute on an <img> tag for responsive images. When this attribute is present, all image candidates must specify its width.

The attributes width and height on <img> elements define the dimensions of the image in CSS pixels, and expect a non-negative integer.
