"Wrapping Text?"

[Guest]

Using Frontpage 2002 and am a little familiar with coding but certainly still
in the learning stages. Question: Can text be wrapped around a gif within a
table cell? If so, how? If not, is there another way to achieve this? TIA,

Don

You can use CSS. See http://www.cssplay.co.uk/menu/embed (you'll have to
View Source).

Sure. The fact that it's in a table cell isn't important (assuming the cell
doesn't have any alignment properties set, and there's enough room for the
image and the text).

There are two ways, one using straight HTML, the other using CSS. The CSS
way allows you to add padding around the image, as much as you need on each
side, so it's usually preferable. It works fine in the current major
browsers.

Using Code View...

Using CSS, to align the image to the left:

<img src="myimage.gif" width="100" height="100" style="float: left; padding:
10px 10px 10px 10px;">

The padding values go in this order: TOP, RIGHT, BOTTOM, LEFT. You can make
them whatever you like.

Hope that helps,

Hi Patty,

Thanks for the response and I'll look very closely at what you posted. I
was able to sort of de-cipher the code in the link that was posted above and
I've been able to make the CSS work, although I have to admit, I've got a lot
of studying to do. A few things that were used that are brand new to
me...lol...as though a lot of this isn't...haha

Thanks again, and you might be hearing me yell for help again....
