HTML - Text Over Image ?
Hi, I am new to the forum, and HTML. I have a website, but it built by someone else, who has since left the country, so I am trying to learn basic coding to do my own website work. My question is, how do I put an image on a page with text displayed on the image ? There is an image on the home page of my site, Lanna Charm, with text on it , and I have tried to create the same effect, without success. Is there an easy way to do this ? I found the image in "Assets", in the admin section, and I can reproduce it, but I want to use different images, with different text. Thank you, Mickmac
Similar Tutorialshere is the (ineffective) code currently: <img style="float: left; width: 169px; height: 73px;" src="img/logo1.png" alt="" /> <h1 style="text-align: center;">random text</h1> the image shifts the left margin such that the text is centered as though the page width was 169px less than it really is. i'm not debating the code itself; the code above behaves as its meant to. aka no surprises. i just cant figure out the appropriate code to center the text across the entire real width of the page as though there was no image. i've tried div tags & all the things google hunting advised. no luck. other than finding this forum, which seems like it'll be a boon! thanx in advance for advise/comments/feedback/help. I have seen this many times but can not figure how to do it. Its the transparent images or text in text boxes, one example of this is http://au.movies.yahoo.com/Coming+Soon/to-cinemas/ At the top right you can see that transparent yahoo image in the text box and when you click it it disappears then comes back? can someone tell me how this works? Thanks My client friend wants a links page with rollover emails that chage the main image of the page so he can have a different sketch of each of them. My idea, and its backfiring as I can do this if I change the email text into images with swap image and a target but he wants them to remain as copyable (mmm is that even a word?) text. Can it be done with text without making it an image? many thanks to all you wonderful people that make these sites possible jax Im trying to create a simple thing for my business. What im trying to do is have the image of each of my employees and under it have their name and other info. I want the images side by side with some space and able to put their info under it. Can someone help me with a html code? thanks! Hi, I want to place some text over an image, however i don't want to set the image as a background, as the user should be able to print the image, along with the text. What i want is that a photo would have something like "copyright 2009" or something similar when it is printed. Can someone point me in the right direction (to the correct forum, link etc.) thanks and best regards, Joe How can I, in a table, put text directly to the right of an image? When I try, the image is placed, and then there's plenty of space to the right, but the text goes to the bottom right corner of the picture. How can I have it like this: (x's represent the image) xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx ← Text xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx I'd like to have them all on a center line so to speak, where the middle of the text is lined up with the middle of the picture, and the text is centered (the text will be in a column-like structure, not just one line as it appears above) How do I type text on top of a image and have it look the same in IE and Firefox Hi, I am relativeley new to web design, I am just wondering if there is a way for me to put text over an image in Dreamweaver.

It shows just the first line to the right of the image, then everything else ends up below it so there is a large and very awkward space. The code is validated, and there is no problem in Firefox. A very similar scenario works fine at http://www.uncooking101.com/index.html . Does anyone know what in the world I am doing wrong?? If you don't see what I'm seeing, I uploaded a screenshot he http://uncooking101.com/images/iescreenshot.png I thank you in advance if you are able to help me! I'm new to really discussing these things. Usually my friend Google answers my tough situations, but I don't even know what to search for and am now about to pull my hair out! I am building a site from scratch, and since I dont have images yet, I am using image placeholders. I havent used frames, which may be my issue, but I used separate images on top for buttons and then a large image in the middle, and then a couple more buttons as images on the bottom of the page. Now when I try to align the middle image to the right so i can put buttons on the left, everything on the bottom half of the page moves to the rght as well, instead of just the middle image. Why is this happening, should i be using 4 separate frames on this page for each section? i am not to familiar with them, so i havent used them so far. Also, alot of the functions for images arent available, is that because they are just image placeholders? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Hi! I'm only starting out learning HTML and I've already bumped into a problem. I'm trying to have an image on a page, followed by some text placed under the image, in another paragraph, but for some reason the image now hides part of the text (so 'Would you like to place an order or to request more information?' no longer comes up, and 'Send an email', which still comes up, no longer is a link, it's just plain text). The text could read alright before I added the image code. Here's the piece - I'm copying it all in case my mistake is further up, but the img part is almost at the bottom of the code. HTML Code: <html> <head> <title>Armando Escalante Photografia y Video</title> </head> <body background="hearts.bmp"> <h1 align="center"> Armando Escalante Photografia y Video </h1> <hr> <p>Welcome to Armando Escalante Photografia y Video's website. <br> <b>Your special moments live forever...</b> </p> <p> <a href="url1"> Gallerie </a> <a href="url2"> Video </a> <a href="paquetes.htm"> Paquetes </a> <a href="url4"> Contactez-nous! </a> </p> <p> <img src="Celine et tous.jpg" width="400" height="600" alt="Celine en famille>     </p> <p> Would you like to place an order or to request more information? <a href="mailto:sauleme@hotmail.com?subject=Info%20or%20order"> Send us an email! </a> </p> </body> </html> Im trying to valign some text, but when there is an image in the same field it doesn't work. Heres an example: PHP Code: <html> <body> <table border=1><tr><td valign="middle"> test text <img src="http://fiestafan.com/120.png"> </td></tr></table> </body> </html> Anyone know how to do this? I am looking for the most efficient way to put text over a picture. I have a background image that i want to place text over that has to stay in the same spot and same size relative to the image that it is on top of. There are a couple ways i can think to do it. 1. Would be to use an iframe where i want the text to be placed 2. Use css to position the image and the text relative to one another. I am not as familiar with method number 2. If anyone has any ideas on the most efficient way to do this that would be great! Hi I am very HTML newbe I want to put some text on the image but i cant This is the code i am using HTML Code: <table> <tr> <td> <img src="http://asmgx.webs.com/p1.jpg">My text should start from the red dot till the right border of the image, up to the bottom border to the image but as you can see it does not :(</img> </td> <td> <img src="http://asmgx.webs.com/p2.jpg">another text goes here</img> </td> <td> <img src="http://asmgx.webs.com/p3.jpg">another one too</img> </td> </tr> </table> This is how should my result look like can any one help me here? In restyling my website, I've decided to use more icons for links than I previously have done. However, rather than have text above each icon to explain what it does, i'd rather have a tooltip type alternate text feature that describes the link as the user hovers over it. Problem is, I can't get it to work. My code is below: <a href="startthread.php"><img src="IMAGES/newthreadicon.jpg" alt="start a new thread" /></a> When I hover over it, nothing happens although the link works fine. Is there something wrong with my code or could it be my browser settings? Here's a link to the website if you're interested: http://www.mannyroadend.co.uk/messageboard2010.php - Its a work in progress - i'm developing new pages live with the suffix '2010' so some of the links may not work properly or may re-direct you back to the current site. Thanks. I'm using Frontpage 98 as my editor. I have made a template to cut and paste text into a page that has a table. My problem is when I insert a image into a field of text it looks like I have parted the Red Sea. My question is "How do you insert a image without using a table and have the text flow around the image like it would in a newspaper or magizine." My OS is Windows Vista. Also would upgrading to a new editor be wise? Thanks GaryO |
