I have a site where an image needs to be precisely positioned and the copy 
wrapped around it. I can use absolute positioning to place it where I want, but 
since it removes it from the document flow, the wrap doesn't stay with the 
image.

Is there a way to precisely position an image and have the wrap follow?

You can go to http://www.mhinonline.org and see where the image is currently. 
The design states for the image to overlap to the right with wrap to follow.

Be kind as I'm still futzing with CSS... it's pretty fun though.

Thanks,
Michael

Hi Michael,

You can achieve what I think you're after simply by wrapping the image in an 
absolutely positioned container. Demo here:

Let me know if that's not quite what you're after.

Sorry for the mixup. I gave you an incomplete URL. It should be 
http://www.mhinonline.org/dev.

Hope I didn't screw up the reply, indenting for readability.

Thanks,
Michael
