    <thetext>Item 8 says, &quot;For historical reasons, the coordinates must be interpreted relative to the displayed image, even if it stretched using CSS or the image element&apos;s width and height attributes.&quot;

This appears to contradict section 4.8.17, which says, &quot;The dimension attributes are not intended to be used to stretch the image.&quot; Is the use of width and height to stretch an image conforming?</thetext>

    <thetext>Yes and no. The exact authoring conformance criteria in this particular case are somewhat convoluted, and take up most of the &quot;Dimension attributes&quot; section. It&apos;s &quot;yes&quot; because displaying the image &quot;unstretched&quot; (from the user&apos;s perspective) might involve &quot;stretching&quot; it (from a technical perspective), if, e.g., the image resolution is not 96ppi. But it&apos;s &quot;no&quot; because you can&apos;t change the ratio. (It&apos;s also &quot;yes&quot; because you can &quot;stretch&quot; the image to 0x0.)

I hope this clarifies matters... I fear it may not have. :-)
