Hi I am making basic emailer newsletters for someone. I make them in indesign with 600pixel width, then export as jpeg and cut into 3 images to put into dreamweaver and upload html and images to my web space, by having 3 images even though they have text this seems to work across everything I have tried so all seems good, here is the question...what is the best way to set up the table to do this. At the moment I make a table for each image and centre align each table and it seems to work but dont know how bullet proof this is to work on phones and everything I cant really test it on...but should I...

1. stack 3 tables as I am doing
2. Make 1 table and split to make 3 cells within it
3. Make 1 table then create 3 tables within this one

or any other way I should do this?

Many Thanks

Sam
 
Why do you need tables? Can't you center align everything and use a break
Code:
<br />
between each image to stack them?
 
Or use

Code:
#holder img {
    display: block;
    margin: 2px auto;
}

Code:
<div id="holder">
<img src="path" alt="picture">
<img src="path" alt="picture">
<img src="path" alt="picture">
</div>

if you read his post this is for an e-newsletter. Tables have to be used here.

you dont need a different cell for each image just use the
Code:
<br />
tag.

Chris' suggestion is good as well if this were a webpage but its email so I would just use the break tag.
