HTML Checking for Large Sites

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

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.

The <iframe> element, used to embed another document inside the current document, accepts both attributes width and height which must be valid non-negative integers. Percentages are not allowed for these attributes.

<img> elements accept a width attribute to specify the size in pixels. This value can only be an integer, it should not contain units or %. If you need to specify a percentage width, you can do that with CSS:

<img src="photo.jpg" alt="red car" style="width:100%;">

The width and height attributes on <img> and <iframe> elements expect a digit to indicate the number of pixels. Ensure that this attribute contains only digits.

For example:

<!-- This is invalid because width is not a digit -->
<img width="225px" height="100px" alt="cat" src="cat.jpg" />

<!-- This is valid -->
<img width="225" height="100" alt="cat" src="cat.jpg" />

The value specified for a width attribute in CSS is not valid.

The width CSS property sets an element’s width. There are many allowed values for this attribute, for example:

/* <length> values */
width: 300px;
width: 25em;

/* <percentage> value */
width: 75%;

/* Keyword values */
width: max-content;
width: min-content;
width: fit-content(20em);
width: auto;

/* Global values */
width: inherit;
width: initial;
width: revert;
width: unset;

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>
