Hello, and first of all, thanks.

Simply, it seems the properties I declare in the content are ADDED (not
substitued, as I thought it could be) to the ones I declare in the
contained div.

#content {
float: left;
width: 440px;
margin: 8px 0 0 4px;
}

#content img {
padding: 3px;
margin: 2px 12px 0px 0px;
border: 1px solid #06598E;
float: left;
}

#content p {
margin-bottom: 20px;
padding-left: 14px;
padding-right: 14px;
padding-top: 14px;
padding-bottom: 14px;
background: #fff;
text-align:justify;
}

#gallery img {
padding: 3px;
margin: 1px 1px 1px 1px;
border: 1px solid #000000;
}


If I insert an image (400 px large) inside "gallery",
it creates a lot of space around it. So, I would like #gallery "to
reset" the things in some way, while preserving its position inside the
content div.
