I have a page that displays images at a set width. The height is variable so the image keeps it’s aspect ratio. On mouse over, the image changes, but so does the height. How can I keep the height and width the same and just have the new image use a max-height / max-width of the last image so the container is not resized.

See Here – http://jsfiddle.net/z3sxc/11/

<style>
li {
    width: 190px;
    border: 1px solid black;
    list-style: none;
}

li img{
    width: 100%;
}
</style>
<body>
    <ul>
        <li onmouseover="clip_1.src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-7VguOKQL_1A/TZCZqkhCJ8I/AAAAAAAAAEc/Hcch-vkZBMk/s1600/01_08_52---Duck_web.jpg'" onmouseout="clip_1.src='http://animal.discovery.com/guides/wild-birds/gallery/mallard_duck.jpg'">
            <img src="http://animal.discovery.com/guides/wild-birds/gallery/mallard_duck.jpg" name="clip_1">      
        </li>
        <li onmouseover="clip_2.src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-7VguOKQL_1A/TZCZqkhCJ8I/AAAAAAAAAEc/Hcch-vkZBMk/s1600/01_08_52---Duck_web.jpg'" onmouseout="clip_2.src='http://animal.discovery.com/guides/wild-birds/gallery/mallard_duck.jpg'">
            <img src="http://animal.discovery.com/guides/wild-birds/gallery/mallard_duck.jpg" name="clip_2">      
        </li>
    </ul>​
</body>

    You can try this – DEMO

    $("li")
    .on("mouseover", function() {
        var h = $(this).height();
        $(this).find("img").prop("src", "http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-7VguOKQL_1A/TZCZqkhCJ8I/AAAAAAAAAEc/Hcch-vkZBMk/s1600/01_08_52---Duck_web.jpg");
        $(this).height( h );
})
    .on("mouseout", function() {
        $(this).find("img").prop("src", "http://animal.discovery.com/guides/wild-birds/gallery/mallard_duck.jpg");
});
