Thanks, Tom. Having an issue, though. From what I've read/heard...
=:width= is used for all backends now? This seems to be indicated by
this pretty recent post as well:
- http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/68306

#+begin_quote Aaron Ecay

Eliminating subtleties is precisely the point of this change.  All(-ish)*
backends now use :width.

* As far as I’ve checked, HTML(+ derived backends) and LaTeX(+derived
backends).  If there are any that don’t, they should probably be patched
to do so as well.

#+end_quote

Using #+attr_html :width 200px results in <img src="" :width 200px
alt="" /> for me.

Why isn't :width for html being parsed into width="200px" ?

:options width="200px" works properly... but then again, I thought we
did away with :options var="value" syntax.

Just trying to keep up!


Thanks,
John
