hi,

I'm not a programmer so forgive me if I ask a something that's to much to handle...

is it possible to create an action that puts images 'inline' ? Preferably with the options : left, right, top, bottom...

thanks.

one thought... maybe could solve this temporarily...

I know there is a php action... could it be modified to create an additional action to wrap an HTML tag around an image ?
Since I mention 'around an image' I guess it should come with 2 fields to enter.. one to put before the image, one after the image...

I guess this could be a solution to show pictures inline... or am I wrong again in the simplicity of my question ? Then I appologize...

just trying to do some thinking , because I really need to show my pictures inline without having to use other modules that or:
* Break the imagecache actions
* affect the whole site and all its pictures...

It's not something that can be done from the imagecache end.
Imagecache processes image files and creates the binary data that gets referred to in an imag src= attribute.
Theming and css have to happen in the content display routines. How you put that image on your page is a function of your theme, or possibly some UI configs within whatever display routine you are using (cck imagefield? IMCE? you don't explain)

There is theme_image function you can override in your theme - but that has no special connection with imagecache.
There is even theme_imagecache() which MAY be able to be used for what you want. But in general this is out of scope for the image transformation libraries. It's a theme thing.

And there is - AFAIK, no text-wrapping 'align:bottom' within CSS. Although it would be interesting to find.
