How to use the widht / height with the zen_image function

[mesnitu]

Hi

I'm trying to use the zen_image function, to some images on my template. however, I might be missing something about the use of the width and height, because I get the SMALL_IMAGE values

zen_image($src, $alt = '', $width = '', $height = '', $parameters = '') { 

This shoud work ?

zen_image('DIR_WS_IMAGES . $my_image, $my_image_name, 100,100)

Or I'm missing something ?

Thanks

Well, 100, 100 is the width and height that you have set in the call to the image function. If that happens to also be the size of your small image, then the image will then look like the size of your small images...

Or are you indicating that the small image which is different than any other image is the image being seen? Ie. Small image is a view from the left, other images show a different perspective...

remove the single quote before DIR_WS_IMAGES..

zen_image('DIR_WS_IMAGES . $my_image, $my_image_name, 100,100)

and try

zen_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . $my_image, $my_image_name, 100,100)

Hi
Thanks
I gave a bad example, I see now I was not getting the right values ie: (400,200) , because the proportional images configuration was set to true.
So, if I use a , ie:

zen_image( DIR_WS_IMAGES . $publisher_menu->fields['publisher_image'], $publisher_menu_name,400,100, 'property="image"');

It's calculated by the height, and I get a 100x100 img.
But, not using the proportional images for the all site, it's a big headache.
Probably, my best option it's to alter the zen_image for this specific use.

Thanks

What are the dimensions of the original image? Are you trying to elongate or stretch the image?

I still don't' have a particular use, just trying to understand, to see if it was possible to use this function in some template cases.
for ie:
A image with 800x542

But lets say, for some reason, I wanted to be 500x100
zen_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'image.jpg', 'somenthing',500,100);
It gets calculated and I'll get 148x100. I could by css give my width.

If I use
<img src=<?php echo '"'.DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'image.jpg" width="500" height="100"';?>>
I get 500x100px

I want to have zencart proportional images in 98% ,so I'll be using the <img> if I need to be out of proportional images.

Thanks
