jcombs_31 Posted November 2, 2006 Share Posted November 2, 2006 I have a left column that is floated left. Then I have an image in teh main body that is floated left so that the text will wrap. I need to clear the image float, and not the left column float. How can this be done? If I clear left for my next element, it clears the entire left column which is not what I want.

ToonMariner Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 Not totally sure what you are trying to achive here only thing you can do is to use clear:right but that will clear any floated element to the right of course. Maybe put up a link or screen shots of what you are trying to achieve Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/25962-clear-single-float/#findComment-119401 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryan.od Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 I hope I am not insulting you with this solution, but one way to accomplish what I think you are after is to display your text as a block element. Try this. . .[b]CSS[/b]#left{float:left;}#img{float:left;}#text{display:block;}[b]HTML[/b]<div id="left"></div><div id="main"> <img src="images/cart_sm.png" /> <div id="text">Hello, this is some text. Hope it works.</div></div></body>If you don't want to introduce another division, use <p></p> around your text since paragraphs are block elements be default.RyanOD Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/25962-clear-single-float/#findComment-119511 Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcombs_31 Posted November 4, 2006 Author Share Posted November 4, 2006 That just clears the text, not the float, I worked out another solution with an extra div that I didn't really want, but acheived the correct result. Toon, you're solution doesn't even make sense. Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/25962-clear-single-float/#findComment-119650 Share on other sites More sharing options...
