Question

I am retrieving a bulk images through response and I need to arrange them inside a div tag and all the images are placing one below the other but I need to arrange them vertical (i.e. side by side)

So how do I do that?
And I followed this tutorial but I can arrange only text?

http://phrogz.net/CSS/vertical-align/index.html

Can anyone suggest me the right way?

Here is my code:

$('#showfilelist').append("<div id=" + file.id + "><a href='uploads/" +
file.target_name + "' target='_blank' rel='gallery'><img src='thumbs/" +
file.target_name + "' border='0'/></a>&nbsp;&nbsp;</div>");

Here is what I’m getting the result

I believe what you want is float: left; on your images.

Functioning example: http://jsfiddle.net/NeMDZ/2/ (Try moving the middle divider. Flexible layout is optional.)

The basic CSS:

div.imgContain {
    overflow:hidden; /* Only necessary if you need to style the containing box.
    Forces box to expand to content's height. */
}
div.imgContain img {
    float:left;
}

All the other CSS is optional. Style at will.
