link to page...

it looks as tho you inserted this thru the edit pages it has the tags around it and all the text in that page could use more padding...

.text_area p {padding: ??px}

when you put the flash in and it asks you for align you should see if you can change that, it's what is causing the 'hug'
and your metadata has warnings...

Mark,

I did add it form the edit pages (source code) becuase i just want it on the one page. The align was not a option when i inserted the flash, so i inserted a picture and copies the align code over so the text would start at the top of the flash.

When I adjust the text_area padding, it just does the padding from the outside, nothing to do with the space between the flash and the picture, any other thoughts. A table perhaps?

Mark,

Quickfix! I just extended the width of my flas movie with a white background out to the right, and the text lined up with that. Thanks for the help though.
