any clue in the logfile: leaving out both empty curly braces generates no
error message and the file typesets beautifully except for this one detail,
a vertical instead of the desired horizontal arrangement of two figures. But
when one leaves out only one of the empty curly braces the file does not
typeset at all and there is a clear (well, fairly clear) error message. Like
what happens for instance when one leaves out the {} for the caption
after \placefigure[][].
A useful experience anyway. Thanks again.

Both work. Thank you.  Stupid of me to forget or neglect a pair of empty
curly braces.

Thanks to Mojca and Tom,
With Mojca’s commands, {\framed[width=5cm]{}}{}, it works for me too. But I
do not want the figures framed. When I replace that piece with
{\externalfigure[NameofFigure]}, the figures are placed vertically, both
with [2*1] and with [1*2].
I have uploaded a folder with a small testfile, which on my Mac shows this
behaviour, as you can see in the pdf. (For convenience I have entered the
two possibilities in the testfile, one of them commented out.) It can be
downloaded from
http://web.me.com/blackstone.robert/filechute/Combining_Figures.zip.
Maybe there are some other errors in the file that I do not know of.
Thanks for the attention.
Best regards,
Robert Blackstone

i think, you just forgot the second pair of curly brackets({}):

{\externalfigure[Ex6a]}{}
{\externalfigure[Ex6b]}{}

for me (mac, context 2009.04.10 18:02 MKII) your code works fine like  
this, the two side by side.

Combining figures.

[Robert Blackstone]

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 510 bytes --]

Hi All,I am working on a text that contains many combined figures, some side
by side,  some arranged vertically. I use, following “ConTeXt, an
excursion”, \startcombination[1*2] and \startcombination[2*1] respectively.
The first one works, the second doesn’t, that is, it also places the figures
one above the other. It happens both with the “MacTeX”-version of ConTeXt
and with the minimals.
What can I do to place two figures side by side with a single caption?
Thanks in advance,
Robert Blackstone

Both variants work for me.

\starttext
\placefigure{some title}
{\startcombination[1*2]
	{\framed[width=5cm]{}}{}
	{\framed[width=5cm]{}}{}
\stopcombination}
\placefigure{some title}
{\startcombination[2*1]
	{\framed[width=5cm]{}}{}
	{\framed[width=5cm]{}}{}
\stopcombination}
\stoptext

For me normally \startcombination[2*1] .. works. MKII; Side by side  
with a single caption.
Please tell me if I didnt understand your problem.
