If the sum width of the two small inline images in question is less than the page width, they will sit side by side. My understanding of HTML Level 2 is that there is no way of specifying an absolute page width in pixels. A preformatted element can have a width in characters, but obviously the size of the font and thus the pixel width is variable with the broswer. A simple if inelegant solution is to include an inline image as wide or wider than the sum width of the other images: this should force the required page width. I often use a long skinny logo at the top of the page. One anticipates that table and figure elements will provide more flexible solutions in future version of HTML. --+ greg bossert rutgers university network services +-- --+ bossert@noc.rutgers.edu +-- --+ http://www-ns.rutgers.edu/~bossert +-- --+ PGP Footprint: 96 6D DC 1D 77 F8 73 68 C9 F6 8B 08 2C 4A 39 42 +-- --+ +-- --+ i have never been afraid to change -- Happy +-- --+ the circumstances of the world -- Rhodes +--
