There will be many aspects to making this possible. Without tables, you will be using divs to create each of those boxes, and we can using either an absolute position to position the boxes where you want them, or you can us the "float" behaviour and either float the div right or left.

To move the div up and down, use margin-top to position them exactly where you want them. The first div on the battle scene would be "float:left" with maybe "margin-top:20px". The second div on the battle screen would be "float:right" with something like "margin-top:100px". Of course, you would need to play with these values.

Absolutely positioning them would allow you to position it anywhere on the screen.
using "position: absolute" and then setting a "top", "left", "right", or "bottom" value can position the div wherever you want it. If you want these position values relative to a parent div, make sure you put "position:relative" on that parent div.

Here's a getting started guide for CSS https://developer.mo...Getting_Started

Also, what's HTML v2?

Thanks I will look into that guide. I need to get more familiar with CSS before I attempt to make this.

And, I had previously made another "How to make this in HTML" thread for my game.

I got rid of the v.2 because it is kind of ambiguous and wrongly implies that this is for HTML2

I've heard of HTML 4.1 and HTML5. Any predecessors are too old anyway.

Read up on CSS anyway like Arron said, it'll heavily rely on that.

Cocoa you sir missed the last post, it's the second version of his project not HTML2. It's okay

[Cocoa]

I know I saw but I had to make sure, HTML2...!?!? That's like... illegal.

In fact, it's like IE6... YUCK.

Wow, thank you for the textbox styling and the pokemon text.

I have now implemented the two into the battle interface.

This is what it looks like now.



Also, your pokemon actually look pretty good in my opinion. A lot better than anything I could have done with MS Paint

You're making great progress! I can't wait to see how this turns out.
