Alas, that's worse: in ADE, the image not only balloons to full screen but it overlaps text. I recall Kobo not reading "auto" as well when I tried it last year. Earlier today I also tried

Code:
img {
     height: 100%; 
     width: auto;
}
but that didn't work either. Sigh.

I just spoke with my friend. She agrees this is an exercise in futility and I'm going to make her a regular ePub with the height and width set in the image tag as has worked historically, and which pretty much every other ePub reader is programmed to recognize, and her family can download another (better) ePub reader to their iPads.

Thanks for your suggestions, though. Truly appreciated. (And the fact that there haven't been more suggestions on this forum, where I usually find solutions within a few hours, tells me that maybe there isn't a solution to this particular problem. Apple sucks.)
