Hi,

I am by no means a CSS expert and I'm stuck with this particular problem. I want text to wrap around an image but that the image stays at the bottom of the page, so that the text will wrap above it and then float to the left of the image. Here is an example of what I want to achieve:

text text text text text text text text
text text text text text text text text
text text text text text text _______
text text text text text text ¦ image ¦
text text text text text text ¦ image ¦
text text text text text text ¦ image ¦
text text text text text text ¦______¦

The image must stay at the bottom of the page as it is part of the design. Is this possible? Any help is appreciated.

Thanks.

If your site is fixed-width and therefore the content won't move around, you can place your photo within the text where you want the text to start wrapping and float the photo. If you add more text you'll have to move the photo. That's the only way I can see that it can be accomplished.

I came to the same conclusion. Therefore it was the solution I adopted. I am lucky to be working with static content. I am amazed that CSS cannot do this; I hope future implementations provide a mechanism for this because it is severely limiting possible designs.
