without having to design two tables and put a photo in one and the caption in the other, can DW MX do captions while clicking on the image for example ?

If your images are laoded dynamically, I have the file names in a database. Then anothe field in this table for each image with a "Alt" text in displays as the user hovers over an image.

Thanks Guys,

Well I just wrote a long message, tried to insert a smiley, it opened in another page and when I went back the entire message disappeared. So here goes again:

On that page there is a photo of hole 9 of a golf course. I want to write a caption below that, not an alt text, it HAS an Alt text. Will DW MX allow me to write a caption which will be part of the photo and other text will wrap around both photo and caption ? Or do I have to create a table with two rows, insert the photo on top and write the caption below ? In Word Perfect I can do this: select photo and insert caption. I would have thought DW could do this... but I guess not ?
And, b.t.w. how do I insert the faces ? This is the first time I am posting here.

I would add the captions in a graphics editor then.

just type, or cut and paste the smilie code into the text box.

Yes, I thought of that too, ( adding the caption in a graphics programme) but it very strange that DW cannot do this. Just thought I asked an expert [medal]
I spent a few hours looking for the part to click on in DW to make this happen. I used to write the html code for it years ago by hand, but I expected DW to be able to do it with one click.

Maybe in the next one
