I have made a simpler lyx exported text file that I've attached to this mail.  
The include in this case is just:-

\includegraphics{zones.gif}

I get the following:-

Reuse /home/alex/temp/giftest/./zones.gif scaled to 754 x 646
embedding ./zones.gif for web image, with Image zones

and imagemagick reports:-

alex@interzone:~/temp/giftest> identify zones.gif
zones.gif GIF 754x646+0+0 PseudoClass 256c 8-bit 96kb 0.0u 0:01

but the generated html still says:-

<IMG
  WIDTH="" HEIGHT="" ALIGN="BOTTOM" BORDER="0"
 SRC="./zones.gif"
 ALT="Image zones">

must have read it and understood it from the verbose report.

Incidentally, I tried converting the image to a jpeg image and got the same 
result (width & height == "")
