Regarding your Subject line, the answer is that HTML or XML syntax allows no
tags within a tag.
>From the content, it seems that you mean styling an element within another
element, which is a pretty common and abstract issue. Actually, all the
elements we style are almost all within other elements, since it is rare to
style the root element (<html>) in HTML.
Regarding your question, it would be much more understandable if formulated
as English sentences, with proper punctuation.
Most importantly, it seems to be impossible to see what you are trying to
achieve. You refer to moving the text, apparently within an <a> element that
resides inside a <div> element with id="videogallery". There is indeed such
an element, but it appears inside an <object> element that appears inside an
<object> element inside the <div> element. By HTML specifications, the <a>
element should be rendered if and only if both inclusions, as specified by
<object> markup, have failed. Are you really referring to such a situation?
How did you test it?
_Should_ CSS rules affect the rendering of elements that should not be
rendered according to HTML specs? Beats me. If I wanted to know how browsers
behave in such issues, I would construct the most basic test document and
test in on a few browsers first.

I don't follow this either. The markup is
<a href="http://www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer";>
<img
src="http://www.adobe.com/images/shared/download_buttons/get_flash_player.gif";
alt="Get Adobe Flash player" /></a>You are seeing this because you don't
have Adobe Flash plugin installed for your Browser and therefore you are
unable to view the animation gallery
so the contents of the <a> element is just the <img> element (and some
whitespace). The text is after the <a> element.
