Floating images in a layer, inside another layer

I have the following HTML to center images and links inside a layer:

edit: better example

<style> body  { 
background-color:#000; 

color: #FFF; 

}  a  { font-family: "Broadway",
Broadway,monospace;  font-size:
14px; color:

#FFF; }

#images a {

 width: 24.99%;  display: block; 
float: left;  text-align: center;  }

#container; { top: 30%; left: 15%; }
#main { position: absolute; width: 800px; height: 600px; }
#logo { float:left; background-image:url("1.jpeg"); 
width: 104; height: 100; }


 </style> <div id="main">  <div
id="logo"> </div> <div
id="container">  <div id="images">
<a href="1.html" >
    <img src="1.gif" alt="x" width="181" height="173" border="0"
/><br />
    One </a> <a href="2.html" >
    <img src="2.gif" alt="x" width="181" height="173" border="0"
/><br />
    Two </a> <a href="3.html" >
    <img src="3.gif" alt="x" width="181" height="173" border="0"
/><br />
    Three </a> <a href="4.html" >
    <img src="4.gif" alt="x" width="181" height="173" border="0"
/><br />
    Four </a> </div></div></div>

  • The main div is 800px wide, so the floating logo div (104px) + 4 images (25% each) is too big for one line, so the final image wraps around the line below. The unfloating logo div will launch the images on a new line in the far left corner.

  • The default position is static - so left and top have no effect.

  • Set position:relative;

    to the container div - be careful with IE6 though, as position: relative is a bit ridiculous if I remember correctly.
