1)Browser support is spotty for Absbottom, Texttop, Absmiddle, and Baseline. LEFT and RIGHT are the safest options because you can reliably predict exactly how the text will wrap. The other attributes may place one line of text where you expect, but then drop the rest below the image.
For instance, when ALIGN = "middle," browsers only display one line of text next to the middle of the image. Any extra text drops down below the image and gives your layout a jerky, unstructured feel. Always consider browser display differences during the design process. Visitors will be using different size browser windows and screen resolutions. On your machine, the sentence that looks great next to an image may be broken in half on a visitor's monitor.
