Hi. I would like to try and get 3 blockquotes to appear side by side on the same vertical axis but everything I have tried so far is not working. I wondered if someone was able to suggest anything?

here is the html

<blockquote>
<p> " quote 1. some text some text some text
some textsome text some textsome text
some textsome text some text." </p>
<p> "quote 2.some text some text
some text some textsome text
some textsome text some textsome
text some text." </p>
<p> "some text some textsome text some
textsome text some textsome text
some textsome text some textsome
text some text." </p>
</blockquote>

any ideas on the css I should use to get them to appear like this?:

quote 1 here. ------------ quote 2 here ------------ quote 3 here ---
some text ------------ some text ------------------some text ----.

also should I be seperating each block of content into its own blockquote element? Thanks spire.

Welcome aboard spire, I'm pretty sure you can do the same thing as suggested in this thread [webmasterworld.com] - substitute "blockquote" for "div" in that discussion.

Ahhh I should have looked further into previous forums. Thank you very much for this. Has worked perfectly.
A much better forum than the last forum I was at, you actually seem to know what you are doing and dont mind helping, thanks again spire.
