Text Widget suddently making images LARGE
-
I have had two images in a text widget perfectly sized at “50”” on each side and it has displayed properly for the last month. All the sudden I check the blog and the images look like they have tripled in size. I deleted the widget, uploaded new images, and it did the same thing. The other text widgets are fine. This one is the problem child. This is the code I have for this widget:
‘<p align=”center”><img src=”http://resumesrightaway.files.wordpress.com/2011/10/twitterbutton.png” height=”50″ width=”50″><img src=”http://resumesrightaway.files.wordpress.com/2011/11/facebook-button.jpg” height=”50″ width=”50″></p>’
Any thoughts??
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

the code that shows your alignment properly for just one image is this:
<a href="http the twitter page link "><img class="aligncenter" title="the titlebox " src="http://resumesrightaway.files.wordpress.com/2011/10/twitterbutton.png" alt="" height="50" width="50"></a> <a href="http the facebook page link "><img class="aligncenter" title="the titlebox " src="http://resumesrightaway.files.wordpress.com/2011/11/facebook-button.jpg" alt="" height="50" width="50"></a>substituting: the link of the twitter page and facebook page respectfully between th quotes. I have “http the twitter page” and http the facebook page as the markers.
replace titlebox with an appropriate label when somebody mouses over your icon.
if the images are to big try changing the heights and width to 30 instead of 50.

Thanks, but that didn’t work. I changed the sizes of the images all the way down to 10 and nothing changed. It may have something to do with a bug in the Spectrum theme. I’ll have to work in a substitute until this is fixed.

This is not a bug. See my reply: https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/text-widget-suddenly-making-images-large?replies=3#post-747045

Hi WPAGAURAV,
I did see your reply and it worked, so thank you, HOWEVER, I have had this code on the blog for over a month with no changes and no problems. All the sudden yesterday the images blew up without any user attention. This struck me as odd.
Your resolution fixed it, but how do you explain the sudden change from displaying properly to not? I am not an HTML guru, but I’m not sure how you can explain it “changing by itself” so to speak? :)

Sorry about the duplicate posts everyone. My browser is taking a while to load this morning. I marked this resolved, so no need to add to it unless you want to. Thanks again.

When writting posts, some times you leave some HTML tags open. This cause HTML errors. The major symptoms of HTML errors are image aligning, sidebar not showing properly, texts being shrinked or stretched etc. You shoul check if you have left an html-tag open. It would be better to let WordPress automatically correct your invalidly input codes. To activate this, go to Dashboard > Settings > Writting and mark [] WordPress should Automatically correct invalidly nested xHTML.
