I've started working on a simple page that has a graphic with text that begins to the right of the graphic and flows beneath it. I set it up in DW using layers,then converted it to tables (I want the result to be 3.0 compatible). It does almost everything I want. Browser font size doesn't mess with the relationship between text and graphic.

Now I just need to figure out how to control the offset distance between the graphic and text so I can make the gutter whatever size I want. I want to do this by altering code for the cell or image. I know I could probably convert the jpg to a gif and add a transparent border to get the same effect (the table has a background image), but besides being time consuming, not all of my graphics will work well as gif (quality/file size issues here).

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
