According to the HTML 3 DTD a FIG element is not allowed inside a P
element and terminates the P when it occurs. Here's your example in
a normalize form (and please note that your notation of the FIG
element itself was not right:
<p>
Typing, words, the quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog. La dee
dah, more content here, and now I will put</p>
<fig src="image.gif" align="right">
<caption>The caption for my figure</caption>
<figtext></figtext>
</fig>
<p>a figure in the middle of my paragraph. This is some more content to my
paragraph, and this ought to wrap around the top, side, and bottom of the
figure.</p>
