some trouble with CSS aligning text

[wolf99]

Hi All

im not too experienced with CSS, and have a small prob

I have a floating div that holds a set of images. I want to use the CSS to place a little bit of info about each set of images beside the set then there is anther set further on like-wise.

eg.

DivA
image blahblah blah blah
image blah blahblah
image etc
image

DivB
image blahblah blah blah
image blah blahblah
image etc
image

Ive read so many different and sometimes contradictory methods I am thoroughly confused as to the correct way to do this

thanks for any help

I like to use nested lists for this sort of thing.
So you have an unorderd list of unordered lists that each contain an image a desciption and whatever else you want. You can set up the inner list class to render horizontally.

Of course, the more cynical might state that that's a table and you could just make each div contain a table and use the CSS for style not layout (since the data itself is semantically tabular, it shouldn't set off the anti-table nazis).
