Bootstrap 3 responsive images side by side same height - css

Question

Is it possible to use 2 responsive images side by side with same height with Bootstrap 3? At the moment the col-sm-4 hasn't the same height.
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-sm-4">
<img class="img-responsive" src="http://placehold.it/400x400" />
</div>
<div class="col-sm-8">
<img class="img-responsive" src="http://placehold.it/800x400" />
</div>
</div>
</div>

Answer 1

try this:
<div class="col-sm-4"><img src="http://placehold.it/400x400" height="220" /></div>
<div class="col-sm-8"><img src="http://placehold.it/800x400" height="220" /></div>

Answer 2

Here's a working version, with jsfiddle demo.
<div class="col-sm-4"><img style="max-height:220px" src="http://placehold.it/400x400" /></div>
<div class="col-sm-8"><img style="max-height:220px" src="http://placehold.it/800x400" /></div>

Maybe your problem is that in your code, the padding is not considering.
Your 400px and 800px is nice, but with padding considering it's not good.
In this fiddle : http://jsfiddle.net/Lrc5t/1/ , with no padding, they keep the same height. But it's not nice without padding...
The padding in each .row is 15px left and right.
html:
<div class="row">
<div class="col-sm-4 nopadding"><img class="img-responsive" src="http://placehold.it/400x400"></div>
<div class="col-sm-8 nopadding"><img class="img-responsive" src="http://placehold.it/800x400"></div>
</div>
css:
.nopadding{
padding-left: 0px !important;
padding-right:0px !important;
}
UPDATE :
fiddle : http://jsfiddle.net/Lrc5t/2/
Without paddding is not nice so , just inverse in adding extra padding to right image :
<div class="row">
<div class="col-sm-4"><img class="img-responsive" src="http://placehold.it/400x400"></div>
<div class="col-sm-8 nopadding-two"><img class="img-responsive" src="http://placehold.it/800x400"></div>
</div>
.nopadding-two{
padding-right:45px !important;
}
ps : You can choose to add your padding at left instead or right... in order to keep the padding in middle. And... nopadding-one and text-right class are to delete...(I forgot)...
UPDATE AFTER COMMENT:
*Why 45px ?*
Image 1 is float:left so it has just the padding-right at 15px
Image 2 has padding left and right at 15px {=30px}
So in order do equality (to get same constraints) you need to transmit the total padding to image 2

To make the images displaying side by side, you need to do three things:
1st: make all your images responsive in the html file like this:
<div class="row">
<div class="col-xs-3 left-image" >
<img class="img-responsive" src="../img/fourthimg.jpg">
</div>
<div class="col-xs-9 right-image">
<img class="img-responsive" src="../img/firstimg.jpg" >
</div>
</div>
This is for putting two images side by side. You could have as many images as possible.
2nd: Inside your css, give the height to these images like this:
.img-responsive {display:block; height: 600px; width: 100%;}
The width is set to 100% meaning that both (for this example)/all the images would cover the 100% part of the column width provided in your html code.
3rd (Most important) : CSS has this property to automatically leave margins/paddings on right and left when you put an image inside a div and this padding is associated with the image or any other element that you want to put inside a div.
To tackle this, go to you css file and for each image, set the left-padding and right padding to 0px just like this:
.right-image{
padding-left:0px;
padding-right:0px;
}
.left-image{
padding-right: 0px;
padding-left: 0px;
}
This is a working example and explanation of how to put in images side by side using bootstrap!

Check this code. This code will look for the smallest height of the image and set it as max-height of the other images. The rest of the image will be hidden. Check it out.
<script>
setTimeout(function () {
equalheight('.portfolio-item');
}, 3000);
function equalheight($that) {
$minHeight = 0;
$($that).each(function (index) {
$thisHeight = $(this).children('.portfolio-link').innerHeight();
if ($minHeight == 0) {
$minHeight = $thisHeight;
} else {
if ($minHeight > $thisHeight) {
$minHeight = $thisHeight;
}
}
});
$($that).children('.portfolio-link').css('max-height', $minHeight);
$($that).children('.portfolio-link').css('overflow', 'hidden');
}
</script>
My html is
<div class="col-md-4 col-sm-6 portfolio-item">
<a href="#portfolioModal1" class="portfolio-link" data-toggle="modal" style="max-height: 225px; overflow: hidden;">
<div class="portfolio-hover">
<div class="portfolio-hover-content">
<i class="fa fa-plus fa-3x"></i>
</div>
</div>
<img src="images/trip-01.jpg" class="img-responsive" alt="">
</a>
<div class="portfolio-caption">
<h4>Round Icons</h4>
<p class="text-muted">Graphic Design</p>
</div>
</div>
<div class="col-md-4 col-sm-6 portfolio-item">
<a href="#portfolioModal2" class="portfolio-link" data-toggle="modal" style="max-height: 225px; overflow: hidden;">
<div class="portfolio-hover">
<div class="portfolio-hover-content">
<i class="fa fa-plus fa-3x"></i>
</div>
</div>
<img src="images/trip-02.jpg" class="img-responsive" alt="">
</a>
<div class="portfolio-caption">
<h4>Startup Framework</h4>
<p class="text-muted">Website Design</p>
</div>
</div>

Answer 6

if you want constant height, should add these properties:
height: 200x ; # any constant height
object-fit: cover;
Or else you want width constant, should add these properties:
width: 200px ; # any constant height
object-fit: cover;
object-fit: cover, fixed the problem of stretching up of the image in my case.
