CSS – Cascading Style Sheet
In this lecture you will learn floating in CSS
The CSS float property specifies how an element should float.
The CSS clear property specifies what elements can float beside the cleared element and on which side.
The float Property
The float property is used for positioning and formatting content e.g. let an image float left to the text in a container.
The float property can have one of the following values:
left - The element floats to the left of its container
right - The element floats to the right of its container
none - The element does not float (will be displayed just where it occurs in the text). This is default
inherit - The element inherits the float value of its parent
In its simplest use, the float property can be used to wrap text around images.
for instance floating property in css examples with source code here:
In this example, the image will float to the left in the paragraph,
and the text in the paragraph will wrap around the image.
