We present a general method for constructing supergravity solutions forintersecting branes. The solutions are written in terms of a single function,which is the solution to a nonlinear differential equation. We illustrate thisprocedure in detail for the case of M2-branes ending on M5-branes. We alsopresent supergravity solutions for strings ending on Dp-branes. Unlike previousresults in the literature, these branes are completely localized.Comment: 16 pages, latex, references adde
