Ok well on my website (I made with Photoshop&Imageready) I want to put text in a particular slice but highlightable text not by using a image editing program. I want to do it by makeing that slice a table and puting the making the slice the bg image.
but I don't know what the correct code is and where to place it.
Heres the link if it helps- gamestrikers.com

OK...

first. please use a title for a thread that describes what you want, not "Im Stuck"

secondly, are you needing a table, a div would be better unless you wanted to enter tabular data.

where are you wanting the text, in th main area?

or in the yellow side area.

how big??

or do i have the wrong idea of what your asking ??

sorry, just to clarify

I think I know what you want. just use a table

code:

<table background="yourslice">
<tr>
<td>
content
</td>
</tr>
</table>


or



<table>
<tr>
<td background="yourslice">
content
</td>
</tr>
</table>


you could also use a DIV


<div style="background-image:url(yourslice);">
content
</div>


Hopefully that helps

I don't mean to be rude but I can only say three things about a post like this:

Photoshop and ImageReady are not made for creating websites and are probably the worst approach to go at it.
Go learn some HTML and CSS (http://htmldog.com)! You just have to know some if you are creating websites and we're not here to do your work. Also we're not really helping you by telling you how to insert some text there because this is only like scratching on the surface of a very basic problem (and you will come back with more requests for sure).
If the second one isn't an option then pay (http://codingforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=36) someone to do it. Should be a matter of three or four hours and you get a decent website that will be editable until forever.

Hello bakaman911,
I think the "highlightable text" your talking about would be a hyperlink... something like <a href="http://www.codingforums.com/rules.htm">Rules</a>

VIPStephan is right about learning html/CSS.

No I think he means highlightable in terms of real text, not text as graphic (as Imageready would probably create).

But I like the way you used the rules link as example... that has somethig sublte. :)

it would probably be a lot easier if it were seperate slices. or you would have to fool around with tables or absolutely positioned div's, which could cause some problems.

Hello bakaman911,
It would be easy to do using a floated div.
Hard to say where to put it since I don't know any sizes. You will need to have this image in a container for this to work:


CSS:
#text_box {
width: 150px;
height: 250px; /*make the with and height match the part of the image you want to put this box in*/
float: right;
margin: 100px 15px 0 0; /*use this setting to move the box into the correct position. The order is top,right,bottom;left*/
overflow: auto;
}

Markup:
<div id="text_box">
<p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consetetur sadipscing elitr, sed
diam nonumy eirmod tempor invidunt ut labore et dolore magna
aliquyam erat, sed diam voluptua. At vero eos et accusam et
justo duo dolores et ea rebum. Stet clita kasd gubergren, no

</div>

VIP...I learned several languages here (formerly WA) by simply asking and allowing others to post the answer. That's what these forums are all about.
