Lining up text and photos in WYSIWYG area

  • I am really fighting issues with numerous sites in getting the WYSIWYG editors be friendly. Its been so rough that I have been creating html in dreamweaver and copying and pasting in to wordpress. Which of course some people that I want to be able to update their site on their own, have no chance.

    In the problem I am having now, the html wont even work so I didnt bother. The problem still exists so it must be template related?? The problem there is I went in to the css sheet and removed all the table issues (or so i thought) and put a 0 for all padding etc in the sheet.

    All I want to do is create a staff page at the site below, and put their text directly to the right of the photo. I wonder why this is so difficult and what the problem is. It is lined up in the admin area just fine but when publishing, it looks like the following.

    I’ve tried numerous WYSIWYG editors (currently using Dean) and none have been easy with this sort of create a table and so on…

    For this one I am using Dean’s FCKEditor With pwwang’s Code Plugin

    And still no luck…

    I have other sites I am trying to do similar things and really want the ability to hand over a site to a friend and say, update it, and not have it difficult for them to add photos and keep it neat when they dont have extensive html software and so on. Text is easy for them, but not when it comes to adding photos, they are lost because the editors are too complicated to get text to line up properly next to photos and keep organized.

    Thank you for any help you can offer, I appreciate it very much.

    A photo from the admin area to show that it is lined up how i want it there, but as you can see the results above do not reflect this:

    I’m having the same issue – I find it relatively easy to set up images in tables or divs using HTML and CSS, but my clients do not. I’d like them to be able to drag around an image and place it exactly where they want it – I understand the issues with positioning and CSS and all of that, but something a little better than the default would be nice. I’ve tried a number of plugins that claim to be “WYSIWYG” editors, but none that I’ve seen change the behavior of pictures on a WordPress page or post.

    Anyone have any recommendations?
