Re: IE 6 and percentage heights in images

I believe the CSS border attribute can address this by assigning a single
border to the edge of the enclosing block element at the position a vertical
rule appearance is desired.  You might also try assigning a class to your
image that imitates the effect you achieve in IE5 with the height
attribute...?
