Preserved Topic: text and image alignment. (Page 1 of 1)

hi peoples.
i have an offline site in development.
i have an a href linked around an image and some text.
on mouseover, the image and text color change.
good so far, except i want both the image and text to be vertically centred.
right now, the bottom of the image is in line with the bottom of the text, and i want the centre of the text to be in line with the centre of the image.
is there a way of doing this, and keeping the items within the one href tag?
...or what other solutions would you suggest?

thanks.

This works only in IE:

<IMG SRC="bla.gif" WIDTH="233" HEIGHT="49" BORDER="0" ALIGN="absmiddle"> Some text here

well, its a start! thanks max!
...any other suggestions?
eg - easiest way to change text color, other than a:hover?

Are you using a:hover to change the colour of the text? Cos I don't think it works in NS 4
Also not sure if I understand, is the text overlapping the image?
If its below the image then try this :
<p align="center"><a href="alink.html"><img src="animage width="whatever height="whatever"><br>
This is the text</a></p>
hmmm?? probably don't need to use <p> tag....but anyways

I think to solve that for NN I made a table once.
Yes, The borders to 0 and the allignment in the cell to middle.
It only works with a little text though because otherwise the table gets funny looking!
