Edit Image Attributes

This screen shows the file names and paths of the selected image files, and the actual HTML tags that are used for each image within your ShopSite store. You may want to adjust or add any of the following tags to customize how images look in your store:

alt

Specifies the text to be displayed in text-only browsers and while the image is downloading. ShopSite uses the image name if you do not set a value for alt

width

Sets the width in pixels of the image. The customer's browser will create a block of this width to hold the image, even before it has fully downloaded the image, and thus it can lay out the other elements on the page correctly. Setting a width that is different from the actual width of the image will cause the image to be stretched or shrunk horizontally to fit the specified width, and may distort the image.

height

Sets the height in pixels of the image. The customer's browser will create a block of this height to hold the image, even before it has fully downloaded the image, and thus it can lay out the other elements on the page correctly. Setting a height that is different from the actual height of the image will cause the image to be stretched or shrunk vertically to fit the specified height, and may distort the image.

hspace

Adds empty space on both sides of the image, to separate it from surrounding text and other elements. The value you enter here is divided evenly between the left and right sides of the image. ShopSite uses a default hspace of 3.

vspace

Adds empty space above and below the image, to separate it from surrounding text and other elements. The value you enter here is divided evenly between the top and bottom of the image. ShopSite uses a default vspace of 3.

border

Specifies the thickness of the border around the image. ShopSite uses a default border of 0, or no border. Different border thicknesses create different effects.

Do not use the align image attribute in the HTML tag, as it conflicts with other controls within ShopSite. Use the various alignment and text wrap fields for pages and products.
