ok below is my code from the last attempt, please note what is before the body tag is irrelivant, the java script what is in the head is what the matrix id within the body does but the code i am trying to get to appear on same line is written in the body.

as you can see from the code all looks in order, whether i put the image and the matrix text in center ot not it still shows below one another, i have tried "floor:left" and it still appears underneath, theres also no <br> tag inbetween the 2 anymore.
i would use a table but ive eben told not to use tables as its bad practise when coding (not unless coding tabulated data obviously.
As i said the java/css script in the head is for matrix text, the meta/description tags are in there but irrelivent. and the java script/css layout for the matrix text is in there but doesnt alter the position of the matrix text.
the actual problem is with the code within the body that mentions the htmlenter.jpg/div id"matrix" coding
