General ⇒ Problems with command \ref

[worksofart]

Dear all,
I had a problem with the references of tables and figures. When I compile the PDF, when I refer to a table (for example), it write me the enumeration of the section or the subsection where the table is, in spite of the one of the table.
Do you have any suggestions??
I don't create any label of the section and the subsection and I don't have this problem with equations.

Please, I am really in trouble.
thanks
Luke

Have you written the corresponding \label command before \caption? If this were the case, this may be the cause of the problem. Write something like this:

Code: Select all

\begin{figure}
    (some stuff here: \centering, \includegraphics...)
   \caption{Text of the caption}\label{text}
\end{figure}

Same thing with the table environment.

Juanjo, you are a master!!!

It was (obviously) my fault ...I used \label before \caption..
thanks for your prompt answer
