    Default EZ Pages Question

    I'm trying to create an EZ Page containing the crystal colours I have available. On the Create EZ Page screen I have to insert content as HTML (in the manual the screenshot shows a rich text input box but I can't see how to work from that on my screen). I don't have much HTML knowledge.

    Does anyone know how I go about inserting the HTML for these images? I basically want four images to a row, with labels below each... the same as how I have my attributes displayed. The problem with the attributes is that for some products people will specify a design they want, rather than a crystal colour, but they will still want to be able to see the crystal colours available, hence the colour chart page I'm trying to create. If that makes sense?

    Any advice very welcome!

    Thanks
    Katie

    You could do this with tables or a div but you will need to buck up and get a bit of understanding on html code.

    Well, I thought I was doing quite well at this!

    I've created this code:-

    <html>
    <head>
    <title>Crystal Colour Chart</title>
    </head>
    <body>
    <h4>Crystal Colour Chart:</h4>
    <table border="1">
    <tr>
    <td
    background="amethyst.jpg">
    Amethyst</td>
    <td
    background="aquamarine.jpg"
    Aquamarine</td>
    <td
    background="blackdiamond.jpg"
    Black Diamond</td>
    <td
    background="bluezircon.jpg"
    Blue Zircon</td>
    <td
    background="capriblue.jpg"
    Capri Blue</td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
    <td
    background="clearcrystal.jpg"
    Clear Crystal</td>
    <td
    background="emerald.jpg"
    Emerald</td>
    <td
    background="fuchsia.jpg"
    Fuchsia</td>
    <td
    background="hyacinth.jpg"
    Hyacinth</td>
    <td
    background="jet.jpg"
    Jet</td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
    <td
    background="jonquil.jpg"
    Jonquil</td>
    <td
    background="lightamethyst.jpg"
    Light Amethyst</td>
    <td
    background="lightcoloradotopaz.jpg"
    Light Colorado Topaz</td>
    <td
    background="lightrose.jpg"
    Light Rose</td>
    <td
    background="lightsapphire.jpg"
    Light Sapphire</td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
    <td
    background="lightsiam.jpg"
    Light Siam</td>
    <td
    background="montana.jpg"
    Montana</td>
    <td
    background="olivine.jpg"
    Olivine</td>
    <td
    background="peridot.jpg"
    Peridot</td>
    <td
    background="rose.jpg"
    Rose</td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
    <td
    background="ruby.jpg"
    Ruby</td>
    <td
    background="sapphire.jpg"
    Sapphire</td>
    <td
    background="siam.jpg"
    Siam</td>
    <td
    background="smokedtopaz.jpg"
    Smoked Topaz</td>
    <td
    background="topaz.jpg"
    Topaz</td>
    </tr>
    </table>
    </body>
    </html>

    And I'm just getting the first cell (Amethyst) with no background image and no other cells!

    I can't refer you to a link I'm afraid as I'm working on it on my machine offline... can anyone see any problems with the code?

    Thanks!

    Have tried that Kobra - if all of the <td are replaced with <td> then all of the cells display, but the text in them is 'background="amethyst.jpg">

    If I change that text to <background="amethyst.jpg"> then only the first cell shows again, but does display just "Amethyst".

    And the background images aren't showing no matter what I do!

    A ha, I've seen the problem in the code - I hadn't finished the <td tag after the image link. It's now displaying all cells, with the correct text, but none of my images. Any ideas why it won't show the images?

    Thanks

    Well I've figured out a way of making it work... I'm going to upload the images to Photobucket and insert the HTML to include the pics from there, but cutting out the bit that links them back to Photobucket.

    Hoorah - I've created the table I wanted nearly on my own! This is a proud moment for me!
