Our thumbnails vary from 25 to 50 pixels wide, and so we’ve set them to auto-size.

This works fine for IE7 and FireFox users, but with Internet Explorer 6, the thumbnails sometimes auto-size themselves to the same width as the “Alt” text – leading to overly-wide, very distorted images, since the “alt” text is the same as the name field (seen in green to the right of the distorted images here).

Mousing over each distorted image, and clicking “Refresh” fixes the problem temporarily (see picture 1 for before, and picture 2 for after), but we’d rather not have to post this fix on our website, for all IE 6 users to use. Anyone have any crazy ideas why this is happening or if you also have problems using IE6 with Productcart.

I had a problem with this as well and though I'm sure that there is some code that will achieve what you want, I chose to standardize the thumb size. It usually results in a better picture as well. Allowing the thumb to auto-size can cause an image to become jagged or blurred. We just added a small amount of white space to the smaller images.

njessen42,

The problem is in your style sheet.

		.pcShowProductImageM {
height: auto;
width: auto;
text-align: left;
padding: 0 5px 0 5px;

}


You need to remove height and width, or set a specific size (e.g. height: 25px).

IE6 does not render auto correctly in this case.

Matt that worked great. Thanks for the tip, I just removed the height and width code all together in the CSS file.
