- Q-Besides using HTML tables, how do you space things on a web page, either horizontally or vertically?
-
A- You can string out a bunch of (non breaking space
codes...don't forget the semi-colon at the end) for only horizontal
control, but a better way is to use an "invisible single pixel gif"
and place it by using the image tag and control the space by using
the attributes width and height...example:
I just inserted a spacial block 100x100 pixels aligned to the left
of this text cell and here is the code I used (note the dotclear
single pixel gif is stored at my images files):
<img src="/images/dotclear.gif" style="width:100px;height:100px;text-align:left">To make your own blank gif, see My Image Tutorial
