Image gallery

Quick question, What is the best HTML5 structure for a photo gallery of 12 images. Should I use a table base layout or an ul layout. I want each image to have an h3 heading and a p centered under the image as well. I want the image to be linked (click-able) Is there a video tutorial for the best practice. thanks db

Tables should be used for tabulated data not for layout purposes. I would go with an unordered list.

The structure you describe could be achieved like this, how you style it is up to you!

<ul>
   <li>
      <a href="#"><img src="#" /></a>
      <h3>Image 1</h3>
      <p>Lorem ipsum dolor</p>
   </li>
   <li>
      <a href="#"><img src="#" /></a>
      <h3>Image 2</h3>
      <p>Lorem ipsum dolor</p>
   </li>
</ul>

Hi Richard, Thank you, this is just what I did but I'm second guessing myself.
