Thanks for the heads up on that one BUT...

The first time I discovered the problem was on a 27inch monitor at full
window.  I design on a 15 inch screen to be sure not to go too wide with my
layout.

With the window filling the full width of the wide screen monitor, the
headline is at the top of the page and the photo is down even with the end
of the information in the left column. It's behaving just like something is
not cleared.

It happened on the Vista machine owned by the Wicked Step Mother (WSM). It
happened yesterday at the Library and it happens on a brand new machine just
purchased by a friend in the next county over.  None of these machines are
readily accessible to me to make a screen shot for you.

Here's one a faked to show you the alignment... it is consistently right at
the end of the left column content...

The only pages that display correctly are those that have text after the
headline but before the photo. Then it works fine. (I've considered typing
the word "hack" in a font matching the background color above every photo!
It would likely play hell with screen readers but would get my photos up
where they belong!)
