It's also a good way to find bugs in the web browser, e.g. "bottom" is practically useless in a certain Windows-based one which sucks.

I got it going, but not the way I wanted to. It works tho so that's the main thing :) I was hoping I could do the lot in a css stylesheet file for the image and not specify the absolute location of the image. It didn't seem to work if I used DIV ID= or DIV STYLE= and have the lot in the css file. But, never mind. The image is there :) PS: Thanks for the right:0;  all the sites I read only mentioned TOP & LEFT but no RIGHT anywhere. Thanks for the help. I got it going, but not the way I wanted to.

You only need to specify enough for the browser to figure out the others. Actually, with absolute you could specify top and right.

That's what I used, but the problem is when I used DIV at the top and float:right.. it worked but the white table where the normal blog appears shrunk left on the right hand side the width of the image +++++++++*** +++++++++*** ========= ========= ========= ========= === = blog moved left *** = img I think absolute means I have to specify TOP and LEFT which means I can't use that cos I don't know how many pixels from the left margin to move it across.

=== = blog moved left

Either one will do the job in general but there are slight differences in appearance between the two.
