HTML - Text Wrapping An Image And Mouseover Like This Site.
I've found some help here already, so thanks in advance to the good folks that help us novices.
I have just a couple that need addressing, but they're pretty important to me, so hopefully someone can spell them out. I'll explain them below but here's a quick rundown first: 1.) Wrapping text around a captioned image 3.) A pop-up text bar when a link is moused over. 1.) When I'm posting an image, a caption is almost always necessary. Here's the code I've been using for the image and caption: "<table class="image"> <caption align="bottom">CAPTION</caption> <tr><td><IMAGE LINK></td></tr> </table>" But when I post like that, there's a break between paragraphs to show the image, which disrupts the reading flow. I need a code that will let me post an image, add a bottom-aligned caption, and still have the story text appear alongside the image. NOTE: I've been shown the "align=left/right" code, but where do I insert that in the code listed above?? I've tried right before and right after the image source code, but to no avail. Help, please!! 2.) I'm willing to spend hours to learn this one. Somebody, somebody has to know how to do this one. It's done on this site! OK, here it is. You mouse over a post listing, and a text bar appears next to the cursor. In that bar is the first few lines of the person's post. HOW IS THIS DONE??? For someone looking to find new ways to boost hits on a news site, this is a priceless gem. If anyone knows how to do this or something similar in HTML, PLEASE let me know. Thanks in advance to each and every person who reads this, and a special thanks to those who take the time to help. It means much. aefattwotgm@aol.com Similar TutorialsHi all, I tried posting this under the CSS forum, but didn't get any answers, so I'm hoping for better success here. I don't know if this is a common issue or not, but it's giving me fits. I am trying to make an in-house employee directory for my company. It is a simple design, with the individual's picture displayed on the left of the page and their name and contact information flowing around it to the right of the image. When I use "float: left" in the style sheet, or even align="left" as an attribute in the img tag, it works beautifully in FF. But IE7 seems to want to make the image the same height as the first line of text, and only shows that much of it. If I use no formatting instructions, FF still displays it properly, but IE7 now displays the full image with the bottom aligned with the bottom of the first line of text and the remaining lines of text (each is produced with a br tag) below the image, rather than wrapped along the side. Unfortunately, although I like FF, my company uses IE7, so I need to find a solution. Any help would be greatly appreciated. The problem page can be viewed at: http://skmcbride.com/CHFA/employee_directory.php The style sheet is at: http://www.skmcbride.com/CHFA/_styles/mainstyle.css Thanks for you input, Steve in firefox text wraps around the div, but in IE7 it pushes down. i've done everything correctly to the best of my knowledge. is this an IE7 bug or ? www.clipograph.com code: <?php if ($node->node_images) { ?> <!-- Node images --> <div class="node-images" rowspan="2"> <?php print $node->node_images ?><?php ?> </div> <?php }?> <div class="content"><?php print $content ?></div> CSS: .node .content { text-align: left; font-size: 0.85em; line-height: 1.3; min-height: 137px; } .node-images a img { margin-bottom: -3px; } .node-images { float: right; border: 1px solid #000; padding: 5px; margin-left: 10px; margin-top: 10px; } I thought I could remember , but I want to wrap my text using HTML. I forgot how, I am using tables and I want a picture inserted to the right. I have a pix for an example. TIA Is there a way to wrap text in a drop down selection box without increasing the height attribute? Otherwise very long text just cut off. Thanks. p.s. of course the solution should be compliant and especially work in the dreaded IE7. Hi there Anyone know how to force a long piece of link text to wrap on to the next line. Only seems to be a problem in FireFox. Here is the offending page: http://packlife.co.uk/news.asp By the way, the content is generated by the client via content management, otherwise I would stick in a <br />. Thanks, Kev Hello what is the HTML code for text wrapping, As whenever I put a html banner link to amazon, it puts it on the next line down And I would like it to appear at the side of text. So what is the html code for text wrapping? Thanks James Hi. I've been trying and failing at wrapping text around a mixpod playlist widget. [The widget is in a draft post I'm working on in a blog, not installed as a sidebar gadget.] I'm not technical, and the widget is "flash" technology which befuddles me even further. Fiddling with <div> and "align" codes, I was able to type in text next to the widget, but only in the editor page of Blogger...once I previewed or published it, the text appeared below the widget. I would very much appreciate anyone's ideas. The widget code is: <embed border="0" flashvars="mycolor=5C1400&mycolor2=baac8f&mycolor3=450101&autoplay=false&rand=0& f=4&vol=100&pat=0&grad=false" height="382" name="myflashfetish" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" quality="high" salign="TL" src="http://assets.mixpod.com/swf/mp3/mff-nano.swf?myid=76126179&path=2011/01/26" style="height: 382px; visibility: visible; width: 165px;" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="165" wmode="transparent"></embed> Thank you. I'm making a form that contains three places for the user to enter text. The first two are for taking only one line of text, but the third is a bigger input for taking in multiple paragraphs of text. The trouble is, I can't get this third one to wrap the text! Is there a way to turn word wrapping on for an input bar? Or should I be using a different form element? Hello, I have a drop down menu where one of the items is EXTREMELY long, and because of this, the overall size of the drop down box is the size of this item. I found a way to shrink the size of the drop down box via: <style type="text/css"> select {height: 12px; width: 50px; max-height: 12px} </style> This works in shrinking the overall size, but what happens is that the really long item is now longer than the width of the box and the text for the item doesn't wrap around down to the line below. So you don't actually see the whole item in the list. Do you know how I can wrap this item so that the text falls down to the line below? Cheers For some strange reason if I want to have an ad or image on the left of my text article usually i put a div code around whatever it is like.. Code: <div style="DISPLAY: block; FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 0px 0px"> </div> This works GREAT in firefox but then i was shocked when i went over to Internet explorer and tested my site there using the latest browser.. it doesnt acknowledge that code and so the ad or the image ends up being above my article instead of nicely on the left and the text wrapped around it on the right like you see in firefox Any ideas how to get around this? Maybe a fix that works for ie. and firefox? thank you guys and gals in advance How on this forum, did they get the text on the mouseover to show the recent post in the threads? I have a IPB board and i want to know how to do this please. hi i have this code. for the submit button i am using a pic, but for some reason when i mouse over the alt text doesnt pop up. how can i fix this?

What I want to do I imagine shouldn't be too difficult but I'm very new to this and trying to teach myself as I go. What I have is an image with various hotspots on it pointing to different pages. Now My hot spots work fine which amazed me but i what i need to be able to do is when i rollover a hot spot a pop up type window comes up showing a small amout of information about the page its linked to and a small image of same web page. I would appreciate any help but please bear in mind I am really new to all this so instructions wil have to be really basic or you'll just lose me. Oh and I'm using dreamweaver if that helps. If this is possible in one of the other adabe programmes where I could save all the information on the image or whatever then I'm willign to try anything. Cheers guys. Hello! I'm having trouble with a mouseover image I'm using. I've done mouseover before, but for some reason, it isn't working for me! It is a download button, and if you move your mouse over it, it is supposed to be highlighted. I have it on the page 11 times. If I use it just once, it works. If I use it more than once, it doesn't work. Can anyone tell me why?
