Having problems getting divs to line up properly.

Question

Hi guys. I'm having problems getting some divs to display inline. I've tried a bunch of things but nothing is working correctly. How do y'all normally do it? Floating them? Putting them in a list and lining that up? Maybe I'm not thinking of something =/

Thanks.

Answer 1

DIVs are "block" elements by default. If you want inline behaviour, use the style element "display: inline"

You can either do it with float, absolute positioning, or tables (not reccommended for layout). Have a look at some tutorials, here's one that'll get you started :D
