How to set width and height of background image in percent with respect to parent element in CSS ?
If we are using an image as a child and want to set the height and width in percentage then we need to set the parent element with some fixed size.
Approach 1:
- Here we will use CSS inside the tags which are also known as inline CSS.
- For parent div we will give fixed size by giving height: 500px and width: 40% according to screen size, and we will give it background color and border to clearly make the parent visible.
- Now for the child image, we will give width: 60% and height: 70%.
HTML
<!DOCTYPE html><html> <body> <div style="height: 500px; width: 40%; background-color: red; border-color: green; border-style: dashed;"> <img src="gfg-2.png" alt="GFG" style="width: 60%; height: 70%"> </div></body> </html> |
