SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on fixing a background image to match the dimensions of a table row in HTML. Users can achieve this by utilizing CSS properties such as `background-size: cover;` to ensure the image fills the row without repeating. Specifying dimensions in pixels or percentages for the `` tag can also be effective, but may lead to issues with resizing. The consensus is that CSS provides a more reliable solution for maintaining the image's fit within the row.

You can specify the width and height, i.e.:
<img src='' width='120px' height='200px' />
or just use 100%
<img src='' width='100%'height='100%' />
You can also use css to set the image as background without repeating.

If i specify the image width and height, when the user resize the window, the table row size is also resize and the image will not fit in the row again.The 100% mean the 100% of the image original size or the row size ? If I use css without repeating , the image will not fit exactly in the row but become too small compare to the row and left a space in the row . So , how can i do it ?
