   Hi--Sometimes my photos overlap the words in a blog post, so they can't be read. I don't see anything in the html version that would cause this. The current post is an example of this. (http://susanwiggs.wordpress.com/2007/08/15/5000-sailors-saw-me-in-my-jammies/)

   Any suggestions?

   Thanks,
   Susan

   That's because of the overlap of images. If you set a height and width border around each, enough so that they don't abut, it should clear up. Let me know if this helps.

   By looking at your page source, I could see that when the words do wrap is because the image tag is inside a separate <p> tag. In other words, the source looks like this:

   <p>text, blah blah blah</p>
   <p><img src="image.file"></p>
   <p>more text here</p>

   In your post above, the image tag is inside the same <p&#62 as your text is. It looks like this:

   <p>
       <img src="image.file">
       more text here.......
   </p>

   I'd suggest you to use the code view and take the image tag out of the p tag. Hopefully that'll fix your issue.

   I added a height and width border, and it shifted to show some more text, but there's still an overlap. I will try the next suggestion, too.

   Thanks!

   Sigh. The other suggestion (the <p> tags) didn't work. Maybe I'm putting them in the wrong place?
