jdock1 Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 Hi! This is probably so dumb of me, but I can write HTML pretty well, but I have never came across this problem before. I am trying to display an arrow image to the right side of a text box that I have on the left side in the middle of the page. I want to position it in the center, to the right. See here http://fastdollar.us See the text box labeled "step 1"? Then you see the arrow underneath it? I am trying to display that to the right center of the text box. It just keeps wanting to display underneath it. I have never ran into any problems like this before! Very odd. Probably some css hack could achieve this? Thanks!

Drongo_III Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 You need to put float:left on the div containing the form. That should wrap the content below around it. Failing that. Put position: relative; on the main container div and then use absolute positioning on the arrow Hope that helps Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/263783-how-in-the-nation-of-tar-can-i-display-this-image-right-next-to-my-text-box/#findComment-1351980 Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdock1 Posted June 9, 2012 Author Share Posted June 9, 2012 Ok, so now I have that floating to the left, and I put another one right next to it, but I set that to float right. Now, how in tarnation do I allow text to go under it??!! Maybe I am not that great at HTML/CSS!? CSS is a little rusty to me. I still havent learned it all.

Drongo_III Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 Hi mate Nice job - looks like you may have cracked it but... What i usually do to stop the float is to pop in an empty div above wherever you want the float to stop and give it a style of "clear: both;". That then stops the content floating either left or right. Hope that helps!
