When they're used as meta data to describe to actual height and width of the image, they are content and should be included within the markup because they help with incremental rendering. When they are used to alter the size of the image upon rendering, that is presentational and should be performed with a stylesheet. Therefore, these attributes should stay as is. -- Lachlan Hunt http://lachy.id.au/
