Doing great at this end and still learning. Got a question. Using the html method in this post works fine until I include a caption for the pic. When that happens the text doesn't wrap. The caption coding must be the problem because once removed the text wraps nicely. Is there a way to include a caption and wrap the text also? Hey Liz,

The caption coding must be the problem because once removed the text wraps nicely.

Is there a way to include a caption and wrap the text also?

This bug in Word 2007 is very very annoying. First I applied your tips but everytime I blocked the whole paragraph and then change it into my language (indonesian), I press space, then the language changes again into English (U.S) Then I found out that I need to change my keyboard option and voila, it never goes back to English again! :) Thank you so much for the tips!

Sorry, the code I put in my last comment didn't come through but you obviously figured it out. The href tags on the two offending pics was the only diff between them and the pics that had no borders. I must have done something different with them than the others, so my bad. I guess the next question is, what do I look for in the style sheets (I did scan them) and what would I change? Oh, and both offending pics were aligned left and it was the left edge that was normal in both cases. The top, bottom and right sides all had padding between the edge of the image and the border. Thanks Liz.

It may have been because the images were close together and really, the borders were around four sides, but it didn't present visually like that. Or maybe for another reason. However because you removed the anchor tag from around the two photos (that had the funny borders) and as that cleared the problem, it would have been because anchor tags make things clickable. Now in some cases you may want to make an image clickable so the anchor tags would have been appropriate. The extra border around images are there to show they are clickable - and the anchor tag the "< a >" tag does that by default. Usually this extra border will be blue in colour - the default colour of the 'click'. This is what I believe you had on your images. If you wanted to keep the anchor tag - thereby allowing the images to be clickable, but NOT have the border, you would have to redefine how an "< a >" tag is presented, and you would do this with CSS. This is how web designers change the default behaviour of tags to create non-standard designs. I hope that makes sense. If not get back to me!

The fourth side of both was fine. The other four pics were fine. I compared the code for the pics and found that the two offending pics had the following code wrapped around the pic code: <a href="http://nowthinkaboutit.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/Mom-chick-225.jpg" rel="nofollow"> </a> When I removed this code everything was as it should be.
