    Question How do I float text around this image?

    Hi there, I'm Andrew,

    So I had one of those professional slicing services and I need to troubleshoot something.

    http://www.birgimedia.com/qinc/index.shtml

    In the main column of content, I want the text to float around the image (bullets and all) instead of starting the next paragraph below the image. I've tried applying float to the image but for some reason the text below refuses to move up. I think there may be something in my CSS interfering with my ability to float the rest of the text up.

    Also if you wouldn't min, do you think this is good/clean CSS? or not-so-much? (why)

    If that's what they sold you, you were ripped off, or you should get it redone properly, even as is it displays wrong in a compliant browser.

    Oh wow! And I bet my prices are cheaper And its coded for Transitional Xhtml? I didn't realize that even existed, at least thought it shouldn't...

    I can fix that for you, shouldn't be too overly difficult. We will need to make some slight changes to the CSS and to the HTML, but it can be done.

    If I understand you right you want the text to be around the image sort of like I have done on one of my current projects as seen here?

    We will basically be giving UL and LI preferences and declarations to a new ID name in the CSS and then giving that ID an IMG attribute (mainly a float:left; ) and then code it correctly, too many <p> tags in there now.

    Let me answer some these very patient Flash questions and I will get back to you.
