There's nothing in the <a> tag which would cause that on its own. It's more likely the <a> tag is picking up some CSS on your page which is causing it. Without seeing it on the page it's hard to know what's happening exactly.

HTML formatting screwed by anchor line
This cut n paste line (not my code) keeps ignoring my CSS, image should appear in a column but keeps centralising on page. All quotes balanced ok so can't for the life of me see why. Ok if comment out the <a bit. Any brill ideas? Ta!
