Hi sagar.k,
Thanks so much for your prompt reply. Your solution solved my problem with a slight tweak: {width: auto !important; height: 300px !important;}
When I tried width: 100%, it stretched the images horizontally on all browsers.
By the way, I am using a real IE 8 browser on Windows 7 Enterprise:
IE version 8.0.7601.17514
Thanks again,
Andy
