Thank you all. I got it using a clear:both on the <figcaption>. I realized I don't have a good understanding of the clear property values for example clear:both vs clear:left or clear:right;

Is floating every image in the main container the desired behavior? If so, you'll have to explicitly reset for either all <img> within a <figure> element or use a class. You'll need to be more specific with your declaration than what you've done here: @media (min-width: 992px) { main img { ... float: left; } } On Tue, Nov 29, 2016 at 1:03 PM Angela French <afre...@sbctc.edu> wrote: > > > Well based on your example (good & correct HTML, no need for more), > the caption is exactly where you want it to be - given the code above. > So what exactly is your issue? > > Notes: > 1. you don’t need the `clear:both` on the figcaption, position: > absolute takes care of that. > 2. there is lots of white space at the bottom of the image (inside / > part of the image) 3. tip for debugging: use bright borders and > backgrounds to see where those are, how they are sized (the developper > tools in your favourite browser should do that as well…) > > Philippe > -- > Philippe Wittenbergh > http://l-c-n.com/ > > > I found an example online to try to model mine after: > http://html5doctor.com/the-figure-figcaption-elements/ > > I got it to work by a simple <figcaption style="clear:left " >. > However, if I remove the clear:left from the inline declaration and put it in > the > style sheet, it doesn't work, even with !important.
