I'm letting the images hit my page sans width/height attributes, so there's no width other than what the browser calculates. As far as responsive goes, I'm working with an image horizontally centered on the page; whatever technique I use, the container needs to respect the width of the browser (i.e. like max-width:100% for responsive images). In other words, the the image, and the parent markup, needs to scale down as the viewport get smaller. When I was playing with display:table on the <figure>, I was having issues with the <figure> being "responsive" and scaling down as the viewport got smaller (I had better luck with display:inline-block and text-align:center). Anyway, my fundamental problem is getting captions to fit under an image of an unknown width. From there, once I got that working, I'd need to make sure that things respected max-width:100% (or similar technique, as long as things scaled to the viewport size). Hopefully that helps to clarify. Please let me know if I can provide more information. ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [css-d@lists.css-discuss.org] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
