Re: How to float:center; an image in text?

Css only offers float:right; and float:left;

Is it possible, to center an image, floated around by text? Cross
browser funcionality is needed for NS4.7, IE 5.x, Op 6.x, Moz 1.x, Konqu
3.x.

I would also like to know the answer to this, as to the best of my knowledge
is that you can't. I have tried a variety of method from positioning to
floating and none seems to allow for text warpping around an image that's
not floating left or right. Maybe CSS3?

I hope not. This sort of thing gets dreamed up by graphical designers
who only look at the pictures and don't care that it makes the text
unnecessarily hard to read. (I guess if they were automotive designers
they'd fit sexy heptagonal wheels.)
