Responsive Images

An image can be set to automatically resize itself to fit the size of its container.

If you want the image to scale down if it has to, but never scale up to be larger than its original size, use the w3-image class.

Example

<img src="img_lights.jpg" alt="Lights" class="w3-image">

If you want the image to scale both up and down on responsiveness, set the CSS width property to 100%:

Example

<img src="img_lights.jpg" alt="Lights" style="width:100%">

If you want to restrict a responsive image to a maximum size, use the max-width property:

Example

<img src="img_lights.jpg" alt="Lights" style="width:100%;max-width:400px">
