    Hey, I was wondering if anyone could help me with this dilemma. I am trying to work out a way to get text in a certain place.


    This is similar to the page layout: I would like to put writing where 1 2 3 and 4 are but I'm not quite sure how. I can only manage to get the writing where 1 and 4 are.

    use the FLOAT feature of CSS, it will allow you to make it float anywhere on the page

    float: left; or float:right;
    position: absolute;
    left: 200px; or however far from the left you want it
    top: 100px; or however far from the top o you want it
