normally if we float an image to the right whatever text that is written after the img tag will appear to the left and to add gaps between the image and text we can use margins on the image

however my question is for example if the image is circular in shape or curved or any shape other than a rectangle or square image is it possible to display the text around that particular shaped image using css or other techniques

Hi

It can be possible with Javascript, but personaly I would not suggest you to go for it as the main problem in using this techniqe is browser compatibility.

Still if you wanna use it then you may Google it and you will get the idea on how to implement it in your image.

Hope this helps,

Cheers,

You could also use multiple div's like this example.

You could use SVG.
As far as I know, only IE does not support it natively.

Here is a description:

And another there (look for the 3-18 section):
