Using in my example was a bad choice on my part; I'm actually using . Thanks.

I thought putting hyperlinks inside tags was against the w3 guidelines? I swear I read that somewhere...

Thanks for all the suggestions; I did get everything laid out the way I wanted.

Okay, why on earth are you doing it that way?

is a Heading. If you want your headings inline, that's fine, but don't use a heading element to make things small.

Hyperlinks are inline elements, so they need to be inside a block level element.

Assuming you're using

correctly, you should have this:

<h5>
<span class="options">
<a href="info.pdf">TEXT</a> 
<a href="info.mp3">AUDIO</a> 
<a href="info.avi">VIDEO</a>
</span> 
Information
</h5>

Even that's not quite semantic, however it's closer and will do what you want.

Ah, try setting the clear: none property as well as display: inline on the h5. I can't recall straight away if you need to use floats or not... but try the above first.

An example would be, say you had some information to present to the user in three different forms: text, audio and video. Say you want to show a hyperlink for each media form followed by a title all on the same line. The HTML might look something like:

TEXT
AUDIO
VIDEO

Information

which I have tried; the hyperlinks all show up fine all on the same line; however, the last test item is on the next line. Any ideas? Thanks.

Do you have an example I could look at?

Try using clear: none, but I'm not sure of the exact nature of the problem.
