Hello there, I'm currently running Dreamweaver 8 (Going to get CS4 soon), and I would like to know how to add text to an image in Dreamweaver. I don't want people telling me to go to Photoshop and edit it there (because I can do that).

I just want to make the text in Dreamweaver editable so I can easily change the text when I want.

Hope I sort of made sense.

I couldn't find any tutorials on Google, hence I came here.

+Rep to who ever helps successfully. :)

Is it table or DIV coding?
If it's tables:
<td background="images/image.png)" height="100px" width="500px">TEXT HERE</td>

If it's DIV;
CSS CODE

# divname {
background-image: url(folder/image.png);
width: 500px;
height: 100px;
}

DIV CODE
<div id="divname">TEXT HERE</div>

I done that, but it doesn't go in the image.

This is where I want it to go: (Image code)

<img src="Untitled-1_17.gif" width="203px" height="201px"alt=""></td>
Can I just edit this?

By the way it is in tables.

I'm not good with tables, but try this?:

<td background src="Untitled-1_17.gif" width="203px" height="201px"alt=""></td>
