CSS float
CSS Layout - Float And Clear
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 containerright
- The element floats to the right of its containernone
- The element does not float (will be displayed just where it occurs in the text). This is defaultinherit
- The element inherits the float value of its parent
In its simplest use, the float
property can be used to wrap text around images.
Float: Right
The following example specifies that an image should float to the right in a text:
<html>
<head>
<style>
img {
float: right;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<h2>Float Right</h2>
<p>In this example, the image will float to the right in the paragraph, and the text in the paragraph will wrap around the image.</p>
<p><img src="pineapple.jpg" alt="Pineapple" style="width:170px;height:170px;margin-left:15px;">
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Phasellus imperdiet, nulla et dictum interdum, nisi lorem egestas odio, vitae scelerisque enim ligula venenatis dolor. Maecenas nisl est, ultrices nec congue eget, auctor vitae massa. Fusce luctus vestibulum augue ut aliquet. Mauris ante ligula, facilisis sed ornare eu, lobortis in odio. Praesent convallis urna a lacus interdum ut hendrerit risus congue. Nunc sagittis dictum nisi, sed ullamcorper ipsum dignissim ac. In at libero sed nunc venenatis imperdiet sed ornare turpis. Donec vitae dui eget tellus gravida venenatis. Integer fringilla congue eros non fermentum. Sed dapibus pulvinar nibh tempor porta. Cras ac leo purus. Mauris quis diam velit.</p>
</body>
</html>
Float: Left
The following example specifies that an image should float to the left in a text:
<html>
<head>
<style>
img {
float: left;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<h2>Float Left</h2>
<p>In this example, the image will float to the left in the paragraph, and the text in the paragraph will wrap around the image.</p>
<p><img src="pineapple.jpg" alt="Pineapple" style="width:170px;height:170px;margin-right:15px;">
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Phasellus imperdiet, nulla et dictum interdum, nisi lorem egestas odio, vitae scelerisque enim ligula venenatis dolor. Maecenas nisl est, ultrices nec congue eget, auctor vitae massa. Fusce luctus vestibulum augue ut aliquet. Mauris ante ligula, facilisis sed ornare eu, lobortis in odio. Praesent convallis urna a lacus interdum ut hendrerit risus congue. Nunc sagittis dictum nisi, sed ullamcorper ipsum dignissim ac. In at libero sed nunc venenatis imperdiet sed ornare turpis. Donec vitae dui eget tellus gravida venenatis. Integer fringilla congue eros non fermentum. Sed dapibus pulvinar nibh tempor porta. Cras ac leo purus. Mauris quis diam velit.</p>
</body>
</html>
No Float
In the following example the image will be displayed just where it occurs in the text (float: none;):
<html>
<head>
<style>
img {
float: none;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<h2>Float None</h2>
<p>In this example, the image will be displayed just where it occurs in the text (float: none;).</p>
<p><img src="pineapple.jpg" alt="Pineapple" style="width:170px;height:170px;">
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Phasellus imperdiet, nulla et dictum interdum, nisi lorem egestas odio, vitae scelerisque enim ligula venenatis dolor. Maecenas nisl est, ultrices nec congue eget, auctor vitae massa. Fusce luctus vestibulum augue ut aliquet. Mauris ante ligula, facilisis sed ornare eu, lobortis in odio. Praesent convallis urna a lacus interdum ut hendrerit risus congue. Nunc sagittis dictum nisi, sed ullamcorper ipsum dignissim ac. In at libero sed nunc venenatis imperdiet sed ornare turpis. Donec vitae dui eget tellus gravida venenatis. Integer fringilla congue eros non fermentum. Sed dapibus pulvinar nibh tempor porta. Cras ac leo purus. Mauris quis diam velit.</p>
</body>
</html>
Float Next To Each Other
Normally div elements will be displayed on top of each other. However, if we use float: left
we can let elements float next to each other
<html>
<head>
<style>
div {
float: left;
padding: 15px;
}
.div1 {
background: red;
}
.div2 {
background: yellow;
}
.div3 {
background: green;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<h2>Float Next To Each Other</h2>
<p>In this example, the three divs will float next to each other.</p>
<div class="div1">Div 1</div>
<div class="div2">Div 2</div>
<div class="div3">Div 3</div>
</body>
</html>
