[texhax] Placement of figures

[when harry met sally]

Now the numbering of the figures is not correct in my dvi/ps files. For example, a figure which shows a figure number 7 below the figure shows up as Fig. 2.1.2 where it is referenced in the text. How can this be fixed? 

Thanks,
Sally

 Use the package ``float'' and \begin{figure}[H].

   cheers,
