Text Questions...

[dewey]

Ahoy!

How are ya? I was wondering about something. I have some images (I've attached one) and I want to put some text on the inside of it just through html. The problem is that the space I want to put it into isn't a perfect rectangle or anything (as you can see from the circle in the top left corner and splat in the bottom right)

Is there an easy way to do this, or should I just make the text a part of the image and use that?

Thanks,

Just use css positioning to put it right on top.

Hi,

I know about the positioning, but the problem is that I do not want to go over the purple bubble or blue splat...

you could apple text-indent to a few of the lines or better yet, make the circle and the splat separate graphics then position those with css and add padding to them. That way you'll get a text wrap effect. If your text doesn't need to be html, it may be best just to make it part of the image.

You could use a highly simplified version of this: http://www.alistapart.com/articles/crosscolumn2/
