beginner with an html problem
Hello,
My question is silly but it is driving me crazy! can someone give me the code that perform this task: I want to put an Image on my page and write a name underneath it to describe it and turn the name into a link to another page. Example:
I would like to take an image of hermes and align it to the right side of my page. Directly underneath I would like the word Hermes to appear as a link that will open to a page about Hermes. I tried it as a table but i cannot get the word Hermes to align right like the Image. I am able to make it a link and I am able to make my image appear but I cannot write text under an Image. I think I mess it up whrn I try to align the text to the right so it falls under the image. Please help me, I am going crazy.
Thanks!
Medea

How about creating a right (or left) aligned table, and then putting the image and image text centered within the table

Hows about:
<div align="right"><img src="hermes.gif"><br><a href="hermes.html>hermes</a></div>

Hi Andy, Thanks for responding. As I am new with tables would you please give me an example of the code I would use to align table to the left or right? I have been doing a trial and error type thing and I did manage to get text undet one of my images by using a table. I would appreciate it!
Thanks!
Medea who is very confused!

Thanks Aeneas!
I will surely try it!
I will let you know how it turns out. I cannot believe I am being this dopey! It cannot possibly be as hard as I am making it!
Thanks.

aeneas's code works
