I had a member ask this question, and thought I would share with all. You can also accomplish this, using our WYSIWYG HTML Editor at:

Often, you will want to display 2 items side-by-side, in a Ning Text Box. They may be 2 blocks of code for 2 widgets, 2 images, 2 links, or any 2 items that will fit in a Ning Text box, horizontally.

In order to accomplish this, you need to create a simple 2 column table with HTML code. Below is the code to create this table. Just paste your individual items, where it says "block 1 goes here" and "block 2 goes here". Be sure that both images or widgets will in fact fit in your text box, horizontally.

<center><table border="0" width="100%" cellspacing="1">
<tr>
<td>block 1 goes here.</td>
<td>block 2 goes here.</td>
</tr>
</table>
</center>

NOTE: TABLE WIDTH - If the 100% is not working for you, try changing the width to pixels. If you need an overall table width of 500 pixels, use this code: width="500"
