Hi there,

in LaTeX, I'd like to do something like the following:


\begin{samepage}

  \begin{figure}
	\caption{Bla bla 1}
	\label{fig1}
  \end{figure}

  \begin{figure}
	\caption{Bla bla 2}
	\label{fig2}
  \end{figure}

\end{samepage}

In words, I'd like to float the two figures together. I want to have
two figure, because I want seperate captions and labels.

The above construct doesn't give an error, but the figures don't
necessarily stoick together either.

Any solutions?

Thanks,
Fritz
