Ok here's the deal.-by the way I don't know if this post belongs here in general or in html- I have been trying to place some pictures at both sides of text that is in the middle of the page. I have read most of the tutorials for begginers and what not and I have visited other sites trying to figure out my problem. I have even tried to use varients of html code to do this. Please help. Tell me what I need to do. I just can't figure it out. :confused:

Use CSS's float property. (http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-CSS2/visuren.html#propdef-float)

<p><img src="example1.jpg" alt="example description" style="float:left;">

Thanks, it got me farther. But it is now coming up with a box with a x in it. Does that have something to do with my pics? If not then how do I fix it? btw the pics are scans.
