Why am I getting "Image elements do not have explicit 'width' and 'height'" errors in Webflow even though I have specified the attributes?

If you are encountering the "Image elements do not have explicit 'width' and 'height'" error in Webflow, it usually means that the specified width and height attributes for the image element are not being recognized as explicit values. Here are a few potential reasons why this error might occur:

  • CSS styles overriding attributes: Check if there are any conflicting CSS styles applied to the image element. Sometimes, styles applied to elements through classes, IDs, or style attributes can override the explicitly set width and height attributes. In such cases, the browser might consider the width and height attributes as non-explicit.
  • Percentage-based or relative units: If you have specified the width and height using percentage-based or relative units (like percentage or em), this can cause the error. The width and height attributes should be specified using absolute units (like pixels) for them to be recognized as explicit values.
  • Conditional rendering: If the image element is conditionally rendered based on interactions or dynamic content, it's possible that the image element is not present in the DOM when the browser checks for explicit width and height attributes. This can result in the error. Make sure the image element is always present in the DOM when being evaluated by the browser.
  • Image loading issues: If the image fails to load or the specified image source (src) is incorrect, it can cause a failure in determining the explicit dimensions. Ensure that the image source is valid and the image is loading correctly.

To resolve this error, you can try the following steps:

  • Check for conflicting CSS styles and remove any styles that might be overriding the explicitly set width and height attributes.
  • Specify the width and height attributes using absolute units such as pixels (e.g., width="500px" height="300px").
  • If you are using percentage-based or relative units for the width and height, ensure that the element containing the image has explicit dimensions set using absolute units.
  • Verify that the image source (src) is correct and the image is loading without any issues.

By reviewing these possible causes and troubleshooting steps, you should be able to resolve the "Image elements do not have explicit 'width' and 'height'" error in Webflow.
