<IMG> with other images over it

Hello,

I'm building a website which contains a floor plan of my house. I want
to indicate if some lights in my house are on or off. I thought I found
a good way to do it with filter.lights.addPoint (IE only) but this has
a limit of 10, which is not enough.

Has anyone has an idea how to archive this ? How can I add images to an
existing image on a certain position ?

Some sample code would be highly appreciated because I'm not really a
web developer...

thnx

Something like this should get you started:

<img src="http://www.google.com/images/hp0.gif"
width="400" height="250" border="1"
style="position: absolute; top: 50px; left: 40px; z-index: 0">

<img src="http://www.google.com/images/hp1.gif"
width="100" height="40" border="1"
style="position: absolute; top: 100px; left: 80px; z-index: 1">

<img src="http://www.google.com/images/hp2.gif"
width="50" height="30" border="1"
style="position: absolute; top: 250px; left: 150px; z-index: 2">

Hope this helps,

In this type of UI design, Bart is right, the "position:absolute;" CSS
property is what you need. Play around with DIV's and IMG's to build
your interface the way you want it, then use Javascript to change
color, or replace the "src" attribute for any images that would
represent a changing state element of you interface.

button to switch them off.

the z-level numbers to see what images should go on top of which other
images, and in what order.
