Help needed with text wrapping

Please check this link - http://projects.zanalysts.com/hearing/work.htm.
The graphic is part of the page template. How can I get the text to
wrap around it? The style sheet is at http://projects.zanalysts.com/hearing/css/hearing.css.

Thank you,
- Tim

Your script throws up:

<%@ Page Language="VB" ContentType="text/html" ResponseEncoding="utf-8" %>

at the top of the page...I guess you have a error in your ASP script
To you original question, use "float: right;" not "position: absolute;"

You appear to have set both float: right and position: absolute. In that
case position: absolute "wins" and setting float: right does nothing.
You can't have both properties at once.

Jonathan is right: the box has to be a float if text is to flow around
it. That's the only way that's going to happen.

You will need to make a few other changes to get your layout back the
way you want it.

Please! I really need help with this. I replaced the table with CSS
and removed "position: absolute" so that "float: right" is the only
one. At this point it doesn't matter what I do, I get the same
results. I also checked Firefox and get really bizarre results.

Well you have so many errors and poor markup it is had to know where to
start.
<img src="work.aspx_files/doctor.jpg" align="right" height="344"
width="225"></div>
REMOVE the align="right" and your image will float.

Now I would also dump the XHTML and use HTML

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">

This doctype will be much easier to get IE on board.

Dump all those <br><brand put your text in proper paragraphs <p>...</p>

The next time you get an urge to use a <brsmack yourself, you are
probably making an error.
