Hi everyone!
The sun is shining and I am stuck on this computer trying to learn HTML - AGAIN!

I always go to Pongo first thing for,
but am having trouble finding an answer to this one, and I have a bunch more to post where I use the same set-up.

It is the first time I have tried to put pictures in rows in my description box.
The eBay item number is 557595266

Can you determine by going to "View Source" and looking at my html on the rows of 3 pics
to see why the pics that are aligned right is dropped below the others?

The whole setup looks really lame. I wanted to have them all lined up together without all the space. Is that possible?

I have tried everything, and spent more time than makes sense on one auction!!
But - trial and error takes time.

Sure would appreciate any help I could get on this!

pjburt,

The site of my choice for HTML is htmlgoodies. The URL is http://htmlgoodies.com

You will see Tables in the contents on the left.

Hope that helps,

it's possible but instead of fixing what is broken i recommend a different approach. put the pictures inside another table... like this


<TR><Td>

<table width="100%">

<TR>

<TD align=left valign=top><img src=url1></td>

<TD align=center valign=top><img src=url2></td>

<TD align=right valign=top><img src=url3></td>

</tr></table>

</td></tr>

Sometimes if your images are over the size limit in the space provided by eBay they automatically get wrapped around onto the next line, even if they are in a table format.
