If you put the scripts for the disambiguation, the railroad info box, the picture, and a logo at the top of the page, and then all of the text, you won't get text floating to the left of the railroad info box.

You'll have to put the scripts for the disambiguation and the railroad info box at the top of the page. Then put enough article text to exactly fill the area to the left of the railroad info box. Too much, and you'll have a line or more of full-width text between the info box and the photo. Too little, and you'll have a blank area to the left of the info box. You'll have to experiment with the "Show preview" button to get the right match. Then, put in the scripts for the picture and the logo. Finish up with any remaining text.

The above advice is great for a PC set at 800 x 600 resolution, but later on, I checked this page with a PC set at 1024 x 768. There was now an empty space between the text next to the info box and the text next to the image. Since that gap broke up a paragraph, it was hard to read. So if you follow my advice, don't go for the exact match between text and images in just one resolution. It won't work in another resolution. Instead, go for the too little text option, and don't break up paragraphs. Rmeier 06:59, 1 Dec 2004 (UTC)
