Thread: Image alignment problem - any ideas?

Hi all,

Here's my page showing the problem - this is using one of the layouts from Flexi CSS Layouts:

http://www.stoltz.us/imageproblem.asp

The image on the page is left aligned. The text "should" wrap around it, and it does on IE 8 and 9, Chrome, FireFox, Safari. etc/

On IE 6 and 7, it breaks, and the text starts at the bottom of the image, as if there were no alignment specified.

Is this a CSS problem with this layout? How can it be fixed?

Thanks for any help!

Hello David,

No, it's not a problem from the layout. IE 6&7 don't recognize align="left" on the image tag. Plus this way of aligning an image is no deprecated and it's not W3C valid.

You need to use float instead. Put this rule in your CSS:

.left {
float:left;
}

And then add the image with the "left" class:

<img src="" class="left" />
