How To Install Pligg 9.9

Websites like BBC or The New York Times always display images and pictures inside a box that is aligned either to the right or left of the web page. (see screenshot on the right)

You’ll also notice a 1-2 sentence long text caption just below the photograph containing brief description of the image, copyright information, etc.

There are two advantages of adding image captions in web pages:

1. Stylish and Read Friendly - Your visitors can easily get the context of the image from the small caption without having to read the full story.

2. SEO Friendly - Since captions describe the image in text and are located in close proximity to the image, they could be very effective in getting your images rank well on image search engines.

How to Add Text Captions and Align Images on Web Pages ?

With simple CSS and HTML, you can quickly add text captions to images very similar to BBC or Wikipedia:

Before we get into the code, here’s a snapshot of the end product. The Google logo is aligned to the right of the browser, is enclosed inside a box with borders that also contains a text caption.
Here’s the HTML+CSS code for the above implementation:

Step 1: Add the following CSS code to an external CSS file or to your blog template under the HEAD section.

Step 2: Now insert the following HTML code anywhere in the web page. The process is exactly the same as inserting regular images but we have just enclosed that inside a DIV tag

Image Caption goes here.

In the above example, we add the file google.gif left aligned and the image has dimensions 276×120.

Replace left with right if you want to right align the image box. You’ll also need to modify the style:width of the DIV tag such it is equal to image width + 2.

You can also fiddle with the CSS to change the font name, size, border colors, background, margins, etc.
