Text alignment next to 2 photos - Macromedia Dreamweaver

Hello,

It's hard to picture what you're trying to do.
I'm not sure where the second image is supposed to be.
".. to the right of these photos and start about halfway below the first
photo and end halfway to the right of the 2nd photo..."
Can you post a link to an image of what you want to do?

In the meantime, if you want the two images stacked and the text to the
right of them, you can either float the images to the left, put the text in
a div and float the div to the right or simply use a 2 column table with the
images in the left column and the text in the right column. For the table
option, use CSS to apply top padding to the table cell the text is in to
control where the text starts.

Take care,
Tim

Thanks, Tim. I may try that. After I posted this question, I thought of using
Photoshop CS3 to do this even though I felt DW should do it. I created a
canvass and inserted the 2 photos and I was free to type where I wanted and got
what I was looking for. Photos and text exactly where I wanted them to be
placed then placed an image holder on my DW page and pasted it. I racked my
head trying to do this in DW CS3. Photoshop to the rescue! But I will give your
advice a try as well. Thanks again, Tim!
