Frontpage '03

How do you word wrap in Frontpage. I want to wrap my text around a Google Ads script/insert. I copied the code and paste it in my code. But it sits at the top, and I want to wrap my text around it.

— short answer: if you can paste the ad code into your page source, wrap it in a floated container and the surrounding text will flow around it; if the ad is injected by the provider after the page loads, you may have less control.

In FrontPage 2003: switch to the HTML/Code (or Split) view, create a container around the ad unit and apply a float, width, and a small margin so text does not butt up against it. Example wrapper (paste your ad script inside and do not alter the provider code):

<div style="float:right; width:160px; margin:0 0 10px 10px;">
  <!-- paste ad script here (do not modify provider code) -->
</div>

If the provider script writes the ad outside your wrapper, try placing the empty floated container where you want the ad to appear; many scripts will populate an existing element. Absolute positioning or "layers" (as suggested) will place the ad visually but will not give normal inline wrapping. was right that you need control of placement; is also correct that newer editors (Expression Web / modern HTML editors) give cleaner control, but FP2003 can do this if you edit the HTML. For CSS float details see CSS float - MDN.

If Google is adding the ad to your page, you probably can't.

If you have control, you can float it with a float style.

Maybe you can put it in a Layer, and then have text around it, but I am not sure.

If you have a legal copy of front page 2003 and the serial number I think you can upgrade for $99 dollars to web expressions.
