I am trying to accomplish a "cell" or container that wraps around a thumbnail image that also contains submission information within the "cell" as well as number of views, etc. I want to be able to display multiples of these per row with a few columns as well. I have found some cool examples using, for instance, defintion lists ...http://www.maxdesign.com.au/presentation/definition/dl-image-gallery.htm... which have worked fine until I placed them inside my own page template. For some reason, once it is inside the <div id="content"> it escapes it and begins below, completely out of the segment. I'm pretty new to CSS by the way, but not super-clueless either. Was wondering if anyone can explain to me why accomplishing this task is not working for me. Thanks.
There's nothing wrong with using tables for things like that. People are so afraid of tables now, but they don't know that tables are fine in html AND xhtml. Just use them for things they're made for, tabular data. If you want help with your problem, post a link to your page. It's impossible to tell what's wrong if you don't give us more info...
Tables are good, good, good! I don't care what anyone says! They are fast loading and they put stuff EXACTLY where you want it and where it needs to be! If you were using Frontpage, I'd tell you to click on the the image or thumbnail and then simply select the option that automatically puts and wraps your text around the image. I do this on my sites - everywhere. Do you use frontpage?
