In CSS is there any way to put an image on top of another image? Like If I have a 1202 by 365px box, and I need to put an image and text on there. The only way I can think to do it is to do it in FW. Any one have any other ideals?

That's a wide box?

You can layer things in CSS by using a z-index. Here's some info:

You'll have to position those things absolutely over existing content.

Be careful with a lot of positioning and z-index, IE has fits with it.

Depending on your layout, it may be better to put the first image in as a background to the div, and then put the send image inside that div. If an image is just 'eye candy' and not critical content, it should be a background anyway.
