Caption under inserted photo

birwin

I use the following code to insert images into a variable that is then displayed on a web page. I am also storing a caption for the photo. When the text is input I use [pic1] as the placeholder for the photo.

I am using align="left" to insert the photo because I don't want a complicated table structure but I can't come up with a scheme to reliably insert the caption under the photo, which can be of a varying size, without using tables.

Any ideas?

(I have simplified this code to its basic functions)

$img1="<img src='$n_image1' align=\"left\">";

if(strlen($n_image1)>0)
{
$n_article=str_replace('[pic1]',$img1,$n_article);
}

echo"</center><font size='2' face='Arial'><b>$n_article</b><br>";

I appreciate your help.

It's not really a PHP problem :-)

I'm not sure, but I don't think align="left"
is meaningfull for an <image> tag

you can have align="top", align="midle"
and align="bottom" (to align text vertically) and YOU put the
text before (left) or after(right) the
image itself.

If you want to put the text below
the image , add a small <BR> :

<DIV ALIGN="CENTER">
<IMG SRC="...">
<BR>
Caption text
</DIV>

Using align='left' allows the picture to float in surrounding text. The text wraps the image. Using a <br> will affect the surrounding text, which I don't want to do. I want the caption to float under the photo without disturbing the text in which it is imbedded.

Anyone else with an idea??

Thank you .
