<img align=left> aligns an image to the left side of the page

<img align=right> aligns an image to the right side of the page

<img align=middle> aligns text to the middle of an image

Pictures are nice and all, but chances are you'll want to have some words with them on your Web page. There are several ways to wrap text around pictures, and they're controlled through the <img align> tags. For starters, you can align an image down the left or right side of a page and let the text flow around it.

Here's how you can lead a paragraph off with an image:

<p><img align=left src="/webmonkey/kids/lessons/stuff/monkey.gif"> This is a monkey. He looks a little too happy and perky. What is he going to do with that wrench?

The text will begin at the top of the image and flow down its right-hand side:

This is a monkey. He looks a little too happy and perky. What is he going to do with that wrench?
