An image and one line of textThis is a line of text next to an image! Wow.

An image and several lines of textThis is several lines of text next to an image! I don't know how I'm going to make several lines of text up, but there's gotta be some way to do it and I'm an expert rambler, so I'll actually probably end up okay. Maybe I can use up some space by saying that the thing above is accomplished using ALIGN="absmiddle" and this is accomplished by using ALIGN="left" (as an attribute for the image)
You can even put an image over here to the right of the first one and set it to left-align, too!

Now this is interesting and kinda weird.   Something interesting

Why? Well, you can't do two align attributes in the same image (absmiddle and right), so you make right-align an attribute of the paragraph tag, then put your text, then your image with an absmiddle-align attribute. A lotta explainin' for so simple an effect, huh? Welcome to programming ; )

An image and several lines of aligned text Now this is just crazy. This is for getting an image to the left or right and several lines of vertically centered text (absmiddle-aligned). You do it with a table tag, and you leave out the border, cellspacing, and cellpadding attributes (they DO NOT default to 0 if you don't say anything, but they default to small values). If you want the picture to be to the right of the text, switch their cells! Wohoo!



Hey, I totally forgot about these Horizontal Reference thingies. And then POOF!, there they were! And they had different widths, too! Like this:



Prodigious!

But I digress. We were in the middle of tables stuff. And this is just friggin' crazy!

This is one crazy ass mofo of a table!!! I ain't kiddin' ya! And you can just put as much darn text in this area as you want to because otherwise it's just a big area with a background color! The only weird thing is I can center-align the text, but not top-align it. That means that my text here will always be centered vertically because for some reason table data can't be aligned vertically. Now, I think that's pretty weird, but whatever, ya know? Oh wait, maybe if I make the top-align an attribute of the font tag, it might work! Let's see... nope! *sigh* Ah well, it looks like I'll be sending Mr. HTML Goodies an e-mail! OOOHHH!!! I FOUND A WAY!!!!
