Ah, sorry, my mistake Mike...quickly reading over your message,
I thought you were suggesting something like

Address line1
Address line2
City
Postcode

etc.

No, of course, your belief is correct.

...although, once you start having a list of 2 or more distinct
things that are related to each other, I'd almost suggest actually
using a data table (and possibly using css to hide the table head)




Photograph
Address
Telephone
 




...
tel no.

...

Sorry Patrick,

Yes I was stating the image is a data object which comprised of many individual 
characteristics (data definitions), sorta XML stylie.
I was also suggesting that "Phone number" was not necessarily attached to the address, 
but definitely attached to the image.



  Physical address
  Phone number
...



Am I incorrect in this belief?

Not too sure about this, as the multiple DDs would imply separate, independent 
definitions that all refer to the image (whereas an address needs to be grouped 
together, and each lines is not independent from the other lines.

Try a definition list.



address 1
Phone number
...


Float the dt to the left and clear:

dt {float:left; clear:left}

That should sort it semantically.

Hi,

  Semantical question. I have a list of sportscenters I need to display.

  I used to do this in a table layout. but how do I do this in 
semantically correct CSS/XHTML ?

   -
  | pic1  | address1 |
   -
  | pic2  | address2 |
  .
  .
  .
  | pic x | addressx |
   

  I've been thinking about floating left and right, seperate divs / 
spans, ...
  just don't know the best solution.

  Anyone with ideas ?

Regards, .K

Yes, your option, just marked-up completely and hopefully correctly!

Agree, the line breaks in this case can be argued as being part of the 
content (as we still don't have anything like the line element in xhtml2)

I would do the following - http://trov.ath.cx/comm/~test/WSG/sportscenters.html

The reason for the hard line breaks in the address is because it is
part of the content, so when styles are removed, it still has the
appropriate structure.

There's probably no *one* really "correct" way of doing this, but off 
the top of my head, two ideas would be:

1) make it an unordered list with addresses, and use CSS to leave enough 
padding on the left and stick the image in there as a background
2) use a definition list, with the image as DT and the address as DD
