How to put text over images in HTML. Everytime I enter the below code, the text goes under the image.

You can create a div with the exact same size as the image.
<div class="imageContainer">Some Text</div>
use the css background-image property to show the image
.imageContainer {
width:200px;
height:200px;
background-image: url(locationoftheimage);
}
note: this slichtly tampers the semantics of your document. If needed use javascript to inject the div in the place of a real image.
You need to use absolutely-positioned CSS over a relatively-positioned img tag. The article Text Blocks Over Image gives a step-by-step example for placing text over an image.
The <img> element is empty — it doesn't have an end tag.
If the image is a background image, use CSS. If it is a content image, then set position: relative on a container, then absolutely position the image and/or text within it.
You can try this...
<div class="image">
<img src="" alt="" />
<h2>Text you want to display over the image</h2>
</div>
CSS
.image {
position: relative;
width: 100%; /* for IE 6 */
}
h2 {
position: absolute;
top: 200px;
left: 0;
width: 100%;
}
Using absolute as position is not responsive + mobile friendly. I would suggest using a div with a background-image and then placing text in the div will place text over the image. Depending on your html, you might need to use height with vh value
