    Help with table incorporation with text

    Hello everyone, I need some help with adding objects to the right of my text on an html page. I know how to add an image incorporated to the right of text:
    Code:
    text textext text textext text text<img src="images/storyPIC/stupid/stupid_honk.jpg" width="164" height="137" style="float:right; margin-left:10px; margin-bottom: 10px" /> text text text ext text textext text textext text textext text text
    But how do I do that for an object / table (lets say a small rectangle that is a "Join our mailing list" box or something. Does anyone have any info on how to do this? It seems as it would be pretty easy, but for some reason I just can't figure it out.

<style type="text/css">
<!--

     font-size:20px;
     text-align:center;
     margin-top:30px;

    Re: Help with table incorporation with text

    I toyed around with the code you gave me and I think it's a little high-tech for what I was looking for (I'm still pretty new with putting together webpages).

    Basically for all my pages I start with the template I put together (I use Dreamweaver). With the template, there is a single white spaced area where I add the content / pictures / other things to. I usually just type text in that area and add pictures (with the code I pasted above) within the text so that it flows nicely.... "pictures within the text."

    But now I want to do that same concept, except for instead of a picture being incorporated with the text, I would like to be able to add things like Tables, Mailing list entries, ect. Basically other things besides pictures.


    I know there has to be an easy way to do this, I just have absoultely no idea.

    Attached is a thumb of what I am talking about. A, B, C, and D are areas where I would like to add things such as Tables, ect.

    Again, thanks for the help Coothead, i'm feeling pretty about this stuff still.

    Re: Help with table incorporation with text

    I don't know if this is something that can help you but if you are trying to have tables or divs next to regular text you can try using the position codes. Here is an example

    <div style="position:absolute;top:0px;left:1px">
    That will position the div at the top left corner of your page. You can change the top number and left number to reflect where exactly on your page you want it to be.
    You can use css to make the div look like a table and have colored background font and so on as well...
