disabling image resize widget in IE 6
Greetings all,
I need a code that will disable that image shrink to fit annoyance in IE 6.0. Can anyone help me out? Googling for this hasn't helped, and unfortunately I'm short on time.
Thanks for your help!

Unfortunatly, I think that, that choice isn't up to you, it's up to the user who is using IE.

If you put the image in a separate html file -- that is, output in ...![]()
... and not as an image file itself, IE can't resize it.

Thats exactly right. If you specify the image dimensions IE won't resize it.
So the only way round it is to either insist that your clients turn of the feature in IE OR put the image within its own html file and exactly specify the dimensions.

How do you turn off the feature in IE?

Use Firefox. Failing that, scour your options... my guess is it's in Advanced or whatever that tab is that lists a bunch of options with checkboxes.

Tools > Internet Options > Advanced >
Scroll down to "Multimedia" and uncheck "Enable Automatic Image Resizing"
