[Mason00]

Thank you for the aligned textbox. How do I move it around in dreamweaver? Or do I use a different program with that? PS: I have all Adobe applications. Thanks!

By the way, I am placing the text box ONTO an image.

For this you need to use an absolute position on the textbox.

Untested example:
<div style="position: relative;">
<img src="path/to/image" alt="Your Image" />
<input type="text" style="position: absolute; bottom: 10px; width: 50%; left: 45%;" />
</div>

Yea, I am MUCH MUCH MUCH better with web design than web developer. Web dev. is for people with brains the size of an elephant. I'm not one of those LOL!

If you want to place the textarea ontop of an image you have to make sure both the image and the textarea are in the same div, so like this:
<div class="mywrap">
<img src="http://www.example.com/myimage.jpg"/>
<div align="center">
<input type="text" name="name">
</div>
</div>

Then what you have to do is put a position:relative on the .mywrap class and put a height and width to it that's the same as the image:
.mywrap {
position: relative;
width: 500px;
height: 500px;
display: block;
}

And then you put position:absolute on the div of the textarea
.mywrap div {
position: absolute;
left: 0;
right: 0;
margin: 0 auto;
}

This will center the textarea with the left, right and margin rules.
