is it ok to move an image's width and height attribs into a style sheet? I'm old skool, and I was brainwashed into making sure I always specify them in the html source (to aid with page render pre image download).

I think the old school method is still the most efficient one. Images
are one of the few/only elements I often use html width/height
attributes on, and/or write inline styles for. Makes pages less jumpy on
slow connections in "some" browsers, and ease maintenance.

Filling stylesheets with a lot of different image-dimensions rarely ever
makes good sense.


My experience and conclusions are just the opposite: I like keeping image dimensions in the stylesheet along with all of the other dimensions of objects on the page, and I find that the stylesheet downloads before the images so things don't jump about.

The only dimensions that the W3C compells me to keep in html are the rows & cols of a textarea. I comply, using reasonable dimensions that will work if the page is viewed in plain text, but then I redefine those dimensions more precisely in CSS.
