 * I have been banging my head against the keyboard all morning. I have my css code
   for images set like Codex says to for float and centered. However on this post:
 * [http://joscafe.com/2005/07/07/29th-regiment-coc/](http://joscafe.com/2005/07/07/29th-regiment-coc/)
 * When I tried to use alignright or alignleft as instructed, the text floats like
   it’s suppose to but the image is blank. I can move the mouse of it and the alt
   tag shows up, but the picture is like transparent! Any ideas? I have since removed
   the align class from the image so it continues to show.
 * Here is my css for imgs:
 * img {
    border-style: none; }
 * a img {border:0}
 * p img {
    padding: 0; max-width:100%; }
 * img.centered {
    display:block; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto; } img.pic{
   background:#fff; border:1px solid #ccc; } img.alignright { padding: 4px; margin:
   0 0 2px 7px; display: inline; }
 * img.alignleft {
    padding: 4px; margin: 0 7px 2px 0; display: inline; }
 * .alignright {
    float: right; }
 * .alignleft {
    float: left; }

 * I went ahead and put my stuff in a table and the image shows up. I’ve done everything
   correct per Codex, so maybe it’s just a glitch — it’s working fine with tables.
 * But if anyone has any ideas why this wasn’t working, it would be wonderful!

 * This is one of the browser bugs that plagues folks.
 * Since you’ve now moved your stuff into tables, which is NOT appropriate since
   tables are for data not design, you will have to move them out to apply the fix.
