hi,

i try to setup a page with lot of images and text and would be happy to set a image on the left, the text an the right.

But is a text is longer as the image height, the text will be left oriented - I would have the text complet right of the image.

Does this is possible now or in a further version of wcms?

thank you for feedback.

I think you need to make a tabel with 2 rows in the left row you have to put your images and in the right row the text.... the only way I know to solve it..If I understand the problem right?

hi frold,

yes you understood right :-)

I played with this and I got it now, but it's a little bt a hacking, not as comfortable....

so i integrated a filelist nd this one is now left-oriented, not as nice.

Is here a way to keep all content parts on on site-orientation?

Thanks for feedback frold.

Maybe you can hack the content type called "rollover images" and in some way use it?

then modify the template

Code: Select all

<table width="100%"  border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
  <tr>
    <td width="1%" valign="top"><table width="100%"  border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
      <tr><td>[REF]{REF}[/REF]</td></tr>
      [CAPTION]<tr><td>{CAPTION}</td></tr>[/CAPTION]
    </table>
    [LIST]{LIST}[/LIST]</td>
    <td width="14" valign="top">&nbsp;</td>
    <td width="98%" valign="top">[TITLE]<h3>{TITLE}</h3>[/TITLE]
[SUB]<h4>{SUB}</h4>[/SUB]
[TEXT]<p>{TEXT}</p>[/TEXT]</td>
  </tr>
</table>
Just an idea I got - don“t know if you can use it?

Hi all,

look at my private site, i have used a simple workaround: http://peperkorn-online.de/index.php?02-tag

Into the caption of the 3. picture have put the following text:

Urner See (CH) - Fotostop[BR]{SPACER:1x875}

the SPACER creates an empty field of 875 px under the picture. The text remains on the right side.

On http://peperkorn-online.de/index.php?03-tag

i have a small dummy-pictur (150 x 5 px) with the color of the background (#FFFFFF) on the left side. In the caption field of this "picture" there is {SPACER:1x350}, nothing more!


That's not a perfect solution, but it works.

PS
I hope, that OG will give us a better solution in his 1.2 Version.
A new content-part or an extension of the old content-part picture would be the best, i think!

try it with css:

there are many other css "float" samples out in the web. I didn't found another link with text and several images I had few times ago, so at the moment just this.
