Simon Gammon:

If I have a page containing only images (jpegs), whenever I re-size the
browser window, the images "wrap" to fill the screen. This is what I
want to achieve. However, if I caption the image, or give it a label
underneath, I lose the wrapping. Is there a way to make a table or
somesuch that dynamically wraps cells to fit the page, or is there
another way to do this?

I think the only way you can achieve this with the current
browsers is to make the captions a part of the images. It is
a solution I _generally_ would discourage, but with the
current state of HTML and HTML-renderers it is probably the
most sensible solution (if you keep the captions short).

With longer captions, I would make a table with pixtures in
one column and the text in the other. Unless you use very
wide images or very long words, this can look reasonable.

Don't alternate the side you have the pictures in unless you
put a very clear separation between each pixture-caption
pair.

Play well,

Jacob

I hope this is the right place to ask; it's a general HTML question, but it IS for a Lego page. :) If I have a page containing only images (jpegs), whenever I re-size the browser window, the images "wrap" to fill the screen. This is what I want to (...) (25 years ago, 11-Jan-00, to lugnet.publish)
