I use Firefox almost exclusively, but some of my friends who read my blog use IE.  I have discovered that when I post an entry with an image aligned to the left or the right, it shows up in IE as a blank space.  In Firefox it looks fine.

A little research around the forums led me to believe this is probably a CSS error (not surprising, my code is so screwed up I’m surprised the website shows anything at all).  I added a style sheet for “.weblog img” but found that it aligned ALL the images I have posted to my blog over to the left.  Sometimes I’ll post one big photo with just one line of text underneath it, and in that case I don’t want it aligned or floated.

Is there a way to float an image to the left in a single entry (and have it show up in IE)?

Instead of adding align=“left” to the image tag, you could instead float that particular image with CSS: style=“float: left;”

I just posted virtually the same question elsewhere—but for what it’s worth, I did try the float=left tag also and I had no success with it. 

So far I have tried “align=left”, “float=left”, and an extra css tag—“.image {
float: right;
margin: 10px 0 10px 10px;
}”

This last one… I’m not sure I pasted that code in the right place.  But every time the result is the same—image looks just how I want it in Firefox, and there’s just an empty space in IE.  Example here.
