Images popping out of boxes on ie 8 & 9

Recommended Posts

triggerfish

I cannot seem to get my images in PL Boxes not to be oversized and coming out of the containers in ie8 & ie9

I have tried the ie fix \9 (see below) but it does not help (I can get the borders to change but not the image sizing).

img,

.block_inner img {

border: 1px solid #9e0509;

margin-bottom: .5em;

width: 99%;

width: auto\9; /* IE9 and below fix */

}

PS I know about max-width, but if used here it does not work correct in the PL boxes.

PS I have the images defined in the text area, so I can get the title on top of the image.

I don't have IE or access to it. Can you please post a screenshot of your site so that I can see the images?

No the images are larger

So when it switches to mobile they are full width

Replace the code you have with this code:

img,

.block_inner img {

   border: 1px solid #9e0509;

   margin-bottom: .5em;

   width: 90%;

   width: auto\9; /* IE9 and below fix */

}

Does it make a difference?

No, it then ruins the images for Safari, Chrome and Firefox.

To small that is, and text starts to wrap.

And it does not change the images at all in ie9

IE9 and earlier versions do not accept image scaling. For IE, you need to resize the images manually and upload in the size they're to appear in. WordPress scaling and resizing do not function in IE.

SOLUTION

I found if I placed the image inside a div and specified the div at a fixed size (only for ie) this works.

.box3 {

width: 300px9; /* IE9 and below fix */

}

Kindly search the forum and read the documentation before posting. It will help you resolve many issues.

For CSS help be sure to check out W3Schools first and be sure to download FireBug for FireFox for troubleshooting.

      Hi guys,
      I have noticed that all thumbnails on www.michaelkummer.com are scaled down in CSS or HTML, rather than on the backend by Jetpack's Photon. See https://db.tt/vNJCn7Gh and https://db.tt/3ZpkHM7G. 
      Any idea why Pins sets the image width and height to something much larger than what's shown on the screen? Is there any way to fix this so that Photon can do a better job in rescaling the images on the backend before they are delivered to the browser?
      Thanks
      Michael

      I'm using the boxes section on a local development site to play around with some options, and running into an issue.  
      Have the following settings for the boxes:
      Type: Images/SVC Media on Top Image Appearance: Standard/Default Image/Icon Width: 280px Image Opacity: 100% Each of my box images is 280x150 in size, but the result of the image on the box is a strange zoomed-in, cropped square (see attached).  I looked to adjust border properties via CSS, but couldn't find a fix.  What solutions are out there?

      I received our monthly Alexa report, and it pointed out that there were missing alt tags on EVERY page on our site. Upon closer inspection, it looks like the QuickSlider which is used for the scrolling banners at the top of the site doesn't bring in the alt tags. Recently, you made a change to the RevSlider to allow images to have "alt" tags. Can you do that for the QuickSlider too?
      Thanks.

      I just tried to figure out how to use Lax in combination with Post Thumbnails the following way: instead of showing the Featured Image on top of the content section I would like to have a Lax section above the content which loads for each post the featured image. To do so it seems there should be some kind of word press hook support necessary (not ready yet)? Or did I miss something?

      I'm sorry to be a bother. I tried looking this up through the forum and then via Google, but  couldn't find the answer. 
      I want to add "alt" text to the images found in the RevSlider and the QuickCarousel at www.stevensoncrane.com. I added alt text in the media section of WP, and I refresh the page and published, but I still don't see content in the "alt=" part of any image HTML. 
      Is there a way of doing this with these two sections?
      Thanks,
      Rich
