[TYPO3] Image right or below text depending on layout width?

Come on Tapio, _please_ read the other posts in the thread and do a
little research before you rush to type out yet another ill-informed
message to the list.

Possibly. But it's also possible, as I've already pointed out, that
it's an IE Windows bug fix.

First of all--now who hasn't read the spec?--there is no value 'all'
for the 'clear' property, it's 'both'.

Secondly, clearing a float "...indicates which sides of an element's
box(es) may not be adjacent to an earlier floating box" [1]. 'clear'
is all or nothing--your answer does not solve the problem in the
question (the questioner wants to achieve variable behaviour depending
on the width of the parent of the imgtext elements).
