The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Windows 98

Microsoft Internet Explorer versions 4.01 Service Pack 1, 5 for Windows NT 4.0
Microsoft Internet Explorer version 5 for Windows 98

SYMPTOMS

When you view a Web page that uses the <IMG SRC=...> Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) source code (tag) to refer to an image, you may be unable to view the image.

CAUSE

This issue can occur if the <IMG SRC=...> tag has the following parameters:


width="height" height="width"

When the <IMG SRC=...> tag has those parameters, Internet Explorer interprets the height and width values to be zero, and does not display the image.

STATUS

This behavior is by design.
