I want image height to be inside screen of any size. Responsive height

I try adding height:auto; max-height:100vh; height:auto; max-height:100vh; but didnt work at all. Any help is appropriated.

Answer 1

The image parents should be a height defined. So, you can set max-height, or height. Search about heitgh in percent ;)

PS.: See in full page

 .col-image{ height: 100vh; border: 1px solid red; } img{ float:left; max-height: 100%; height: 100% } 

 <header> My Header </header> <div class="container"> <div class="col-md-8"> <div class="col-image"> <img src="http://papodeturista.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/arvore.jpg" > <div> </div><!--col-md-8--> <div> comments </div> <div class="col-md-4"> my sidebar </div><!--col-md-4--> </div><!--container--> <footer> my footer </footer> 

Answer 2

Add the class img-responsive.

<img src="my-image.jpg" class="img-responsive" />
