Re: What is the best way to resize an image?

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

Sure Rudy:

<a href="/images/someimage.jpg"><img src="/images/someimage.jpg"
style="width:200;height:200"></a>

In the above example, it doesn't matter what size the actual image file is.
The browser will resize it to the specified height and width. NOTE: If you
only set height OR only set width, the other dimension will resize
proportionately. The hyperlink is to the image itself, not a web page. If
the link is clicked, the image will be displayed by itself, un-resized.
