Hey, I have a floating image - floating on the right. However, I NEVER want the image to go closer to the left than 680px from the left. Is there a way I can float an image yet give it a margin that it can't go past? Once it gets to 680px I want it to lock and let the bottom browser scrollbar to appear.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Float left margin

Can't you use margiin-left: 680px; ?

The next sentence is true. The previous sentence is false. Discuss...

Float left margin

Hey - nope. That disables the float and just always stays at 680.

Thanks!

That doesn't sound right. :?

Do you have the html and css?

You can see the problem at: http://www.flattrackillustrated.com

And when you look, you'll see how the right float needs to stop at 680px!

Code below - thanks!
