thanks alot

 

Have you tried using:

<div style="float:left;">
      <img src="img.jpg" />
</div>

HTML:

 

yes i did, to no avail

 

Adobe Dreamweaver is a great WYSIWYG editor. I would refer to that.

 

i am using Dreamweaver

 

I don't know what webnode is.. but what you want is something like this

<div class="pic"> the pic </div>
<div class="txt"> the text to the right of the pic </div>
Then do a clear after this
and have the CSS as:
.pic { float:left }
.text { float:left (or you can float it to the right)}

So you want to put the pic before the text and float both of them, do not clear the floats in between at any point.

 

i was trying out webnode, its a tool that helps you create websites, they have some nice templates but after this test i think ill start my websites from scratch..

its so much easier to debug when you make it, cuz you know all the nuts and bolts, webnode has a see of javascript and the loadtime of the website is pretty slow

 

the inherent flaw of web page designers is that they're only able to approximate what you want to do. as a result, loads of javascript, unwieldy tables/divs, 'widgets', display and function issues will be crammed into the code. it will be bloated, inefficient and slower than need be.

if you know what you want to do, doing it yourself will be easier and faster. if you don't, there are entire communities devoted to providing ideas and/or templates as starting points. just be sure to give credit when and where it's due

 

like i said, i was just testing to see if it was better/faster/more efficient to use an already built template, but now i know

 

They're better as in faster... if you never change them.

 

back when i first started, i tried dreamweaver. by the end of the 30 day trial, i said f* it and started over from scratch.

no more approximating programs for me :/
