Is there any way to create 2 columns within one dicussion field like this one I am currently writing?
I tried to create a table within this field, but it did not work and all I get is the 'table text'....

I would like to have a picture on the left side and some text next to it on the right side and not only underneath.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

You would have to enable HTML in your forums and also allow people to post HTML, neither of which are recommended (for security issues).

html doesn't create inherent security issues. it's simply a markup language.

scripting in html does however. blame the browser not the language in this case.

eve/ubb.x has an insanely strong script checker (and stopper) in place.

I am the only one that is using html in the forums. What I would need is the html code to create the s columns within the posting field.

Thanks!

Hi CW

You can limit HTML posting to yourself and anyone you trust to use it. It's a permission. Be sure that the forum -> posting options setting allows HTML too.

The only problem with HTML is accidentally messing up the page with broken tags.

Give this a try

<table width="100%">
<tr>
<td width="50%" valign="top">
<img src="http://my_image_url_here"/>
</td>

<td width="50%" valign="top">
my text & stuff here
</td>
</tr>
</table>


This should put an image on the left and text on the right. Fiddle with the percentages if you don't like how it turns out.
