Some editing issues with css template

Question

Hello, I am building a site off of one of the Dreamweaver CSS templates. I have gotten to a point that I cannot make the edits I want and don't know why as listed below.

On this page, I am trying to left justify the Director photo (placeholder), but it will not allow me to do it.

Trying to change the color of the links in the body to match surrounding text. I was able to do it in page properties, but it ends up changing the color of navigation links as well.

Here, I am trying to add an image to the right of the text. Also, when I view this page on a mobile device, all of the text moves to the far left and shrinks.

I am looking for not just the correction, but also why it is happening so I can better my understanding of this css. Thanks in advance for your responses.

1. Add float:left to the in your css to align it to the left of the text (if that's what you mean by justify). HTML alignment attributes are not used for this in the vast majority of cases. Add a little padding to move it away from the text.2. To change link colors, you'll need to target your tags with a css selector, since the browser gives default colors for them. Something like....left_article a {color:#b3b3b3;}...will only affect tags in your left_article

. You can also set the visited, hover, and active (in that order) states....left_article a { }.left_article a:visited { }.left_article a:hover { }.left_article a:active { }3. You would likely use a float:right setting on an image in the left_article

, but I'm not 100% sure exactly what you're going for there either.A good reference site for css would be http://www.w3schools.com/css there's a tutorial there that will help you with this type of issue.
