Hi,

Can you tell me what would be the best way to to deal with the following issue:-

I have 20 small images that I wish to scroll horizontally, each image is a link to another page. Each image has a short description below it that must be in html, as it needs to be indexed by my site's search engine. How do I get the descriptions to line up exactly underneath their respective images and to scroll along with the images?

I thought I would just build a table with 20 columns and 2 rows and put the images in the top row and the descriptions in the bottom row and then anchor the scroller to the table, but I understand from an earlier post that it is not a good idea to put the scroller into table cells because of NS compatability issues.

Your advice is much appreciated (I love the extension btw.)

- Brenda

Hi Brenda,

As you already mention, for browser compatibility reasons it's not a good idea to put a DHTML scroller into a table cell.

However, it's okay to do it the other way around: put a table in the scroller.
So I think your idea to put a 2 row table into the scroller should be fine.

Regards,
