Absolute positioning in a table cell?

Hi.

I have a problem..

I have a table in my site that has pictures aligned vertically down the page. Each picture is in a different cell, but in the same table. I was wondering if there was any way to absolutely position a picture (left to right) in a cell???

And can I make another table next to the right aligned table to put the text in??

Cheers.

if you make the containing element position:relative, with no top or left, and then make the items in the container position:absolute with a top and left attribute, they will be absolutly positioned within the container.

Hi, I don't quite understand what you mean. I have decided to have just one table, at the moment all the pictures are left aligned in the table but the text is absolutely aligned and not in the table. Is there any way to put the text in the table and absolutly align it??

Cheers.

bookmark this page --> http://www.bluerobot.com/web/css/center1.html <--- that's a hack that works for IE, and Mozilla browsers for centering page layouts using CSS. It's only a hack becuase IE improperly applies text-align:center; to block level elements rather than just text.
