[texhax] single caption for multiple graphics?

[Christian Deindl]

I am not an expert but subfigure might be helpful:

\usepackage{subfigure}

\begin{figure}[htp]
\caption{YOUR CAPTION}
\subfigure [CAPTION FOR PICTURE 
1]{\includegraphics[height=6cm,width=6cm]{__.eps}}
\subfigure [CAPTION FOR PICTURE 
2]{\includegraphics[height=6cm,width=6cm]{__.eps}}
\label{fig:___}
\end{figure}
