Text overlapping photo

[kurt.santo]

How do you guys make a text overlap a photo on a webpage (transparent background, so image still shows)? I achieved that, but seems rather going around the corner twenty times. Sure there is an easy way to do this...Kurt

Maybe you want to use the photo as a background image:div.class {background-image: url(image URL);background-position: 200px 50px;background-repeat: no-repeat;}****************<div class="class">Some text Some text Some text Some text Some text Some text Some text Some text Some text Some text Some text Some text Some text Some text Some text Some text Some text Some text</div>Another thing you can do is this:<div style="position: relative"><img src="image URL" alt="Alternate text" style="position: absolute; top: 200px; left: 50px; z-index: -1;" />Some text Some text Some text Some text Some text Some text Some text Some text Some text Some text Some text Some text </div>

Is that the CSS code for this?

Image in background does the job. Cheers,Kurt
