CSS information

Standards information

• CSS 2.1, Section 5.5.25

Remarks

With a value of left or right, the object is treated as block-level—that is, the display property is ignored. For example, floating paragraphs allow the paragraphs to appear side-by-side.

Objects following a floating object move in relation to the position of the floating object.

The floating object is moved left or right until it reaches the border, padding, or margin of another block-level object.

The div and span objects must have a width set for the float attribute to render.
