I have a "wrapper" DIV that contains a collection of other, smaller DIVs that organize data.

 

In addition to the collection of smaller DIVs, the "wrapper" DIV also has some text.

 

I'd like all the smaller DIVs to "float" right, in a horizontal row, and have the text wrap nicely to the left.

 

See my example here: www.SiliconSatan.com/dtest.php

 

Any ideas on how to do this?

 

NOTE: The content for my example is there to provide content (it's from Google's weather API), I could have also used "Lorem Ipsum" ...

I left the boarder info in so you could see how div were arranged.

<style type="text/css">
#wwrapper {
position: relative;
left: 150px;
//border: blue solid 1px;
height: 210px;
width: 600px;
}

#overall
{
width: 395px;
height: 200px;
border: green solid 1px;
display:block;
float:right;
}
#inner, #inner2, #inner3, #inner4  {
position:relative;
float:left;
margin-left: 5px;
//border: red solid 1px;
height: 150px;
width: 90px;
}

</style>

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
