What is the best way to ensure all table rows have consistent heights that are not affected by image sizes?

In the provided code snippet, you will notice that the height of the table rows varies slightly based on the height of the images.

Currently, the image tags are set to height: auto;, and changing it to 300px would make all images the same size, however, maintaining the aspect ratio is important.

table {
  display: table;
  table-layout: fixed;
  width: 100%;
  margin-bottom: 4rem;
  border: 1px solid #c4c4c4;
  border-collapse: collapse;

  font-size: 1rem;
}

thead {
  background: #fbfbfb;
  border: 1px solid #c4c4c4;
}

th,
td {
  height: 5rem;
  padding: 1rem;
}

th {
  text-align: start;
  background: #fbfbfb;
}

td {
  background: #fff;
}

tr {
  border: 1px solid #c4c4c4;
}

.read-more {
  color: #fff;
  background: #005c68;
  border-radius: 5px;
  cursor: pointer;
  font-size: 1rem;
  font-weight: 500;
  padding: 1rem;
}

.price {
  font-weight: 700;
}

img {
  width: 100%;
  max-width: 7em;
  height: auto;
}

@media screen and (max-width: 1225px) and (min-width: 1045px) {
  .priority-5 {
    display: none;
  }
}

@media screen and (max-width: 1045px) and (min-width: 835px) {
  .priority-5 {
    display: none;
  }
  .priority-4 {
    display: none;
  }
}

@media screen and (max-width: 835px) and (min-width: 300px) {
  .priority-5 {
    display: none;
  }
  .priority-4 {
    display: none;
  }
  .priority-3 {
    display: none;
  }
}

@media screen and (max-width: 300px) {
  .priority-5 {
    display: none;
  }
  .priority-4 {
    display: none;
  }
  .priority-3 {
    display: none;
  }
  .priority-2 {
    display: none;
  }
}

Answer №1

Here are a few suggestions I recommend:

  1. If you have a specific aspect ratio in mind, you can manually set it using the css aspect-ratio property. Then adjust the height to fit within the table row.
  2. Specify the height and width of the image, allowing the content to adjust accordingly with the object-fit. Keep in mind that this may partially obscure the content, so use caution.
  3. Set the maximum height property for the image, along with a width=auto, to scale it down to the desired size.

Answer №2

There are various methods to achieve this, such as setting the height of the parent element.

.wrapper {
  border: 1px solid blue; /* Adding a visual border for the parent element */
  height: 200px; /* Keeping the parent element's height lower than the child */
  margin: 3rem 0; /* Providing some spacing between the elements */
}
<!-- Using default overflow-y property (visible) -->
<div class="wrapper"> <!-- style="overflow-y:visible" -->
  <img src="http://via.placeholder.com/300x300"/>
</div>

<!-- Applying hidden overflow-y property -->
<div class="wrapper" style="overflow-y:hidden">
  <img src="http://via.placeholder.com/300x300"/>
</div>

Once the content overflows, you can adjust the image display accordingly.
