forcing line breaks.
hello.
i have an image and i have text wrap around it so its - woo hoo.. then some text wraps around it - now... how can i FORCE the next paragraph to automatically go under the pic instead of to still wrap around the image?
basically i don't want the second paragraph to wrap - just the first.
thanks.

I don't quite get you, but swap align="left" for either align="middle" or align="bottom" (and it's align, not valign).
Or you can use h and vspace
Look in the link in my signature and just over half way on the graphics page shows examples of aligning graphics.

You could also do to start the next paragraph on a new line, but I'm not sure that this is the best way to do things. That does work though. Suzanne might know of a better way.

heh. Um. Not really, my best advice is that if you really don't want wrapping, consider the size of your paragraph, your image, et cetera and do some copyediting. However, as far as messing with the code, if you only want to affect ONE paragraph in a set of paragraphs, you can set an ID or CLASS for that paragraph (the second) and use "clear" to set which way you want it to work. {clear: both;} may be what you need.

I would seperate each paragraph in P tags and place the image to text wrap around in one of them. Then throw in the BR.
<p><img src="myimage.gif" align="left">
this is just some filler text here<br clear="all"></p>
<p>this would be the next paragraph</p>

Or you can go like this
This is some text before the image
This is some text after the image
Which will look like this:
This is some text before the image
[image]
This is some text after the image

And it would look just like that without the align and style attributes as well.

And to be really explicit:
text paragraph styled however.
more text
OR
.clearboth { clear: both; }
.
.
.
text paragraph styled however.
more text
Which would allow you to change clearboth (name it something reasonable) to anything you wanted, if you changed your mind about the design in the future, without having to edit the content.
