Standards information

Remarks

With a value of left or right, the object is treated as block-level—that is, the IHTMLCSSStyleDeclaration::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 IHTMLCSSStyleDeclaration::styleFloat attribute to render. In Microsoft Internet Explorer 5, div and span objects are assigned a width by default and will render if a width is not specified.

Examples

This example shows how the IHTMLCSSStyleDeclaration::styleFloat property affects the flow of the text. In the three div elements below, the blue square image floats to the left and right of the text. The third div element show the image and text with no float value applied.

<div>
   <img class="left" src="square.png" alt="Blue square"/>
   <p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit, sed diam nonummy nibh euismod tincidunt ut laoreet dolore magna aliquam erat volutpat.</p>
</div>
<div>
   <img class="right" src="square.png" alt="Blue square"/> 
   <p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit, sed diam nonummy nibh euismod tincidunt ut laoreet dolore magna aliquam erat volutpat.</p>
</div>
<div>
   <img src="square.png" alt="Blue square"/> 
   <p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit, sed diam nonummy nibh euismod tincidunt ut laoreet dolore magna aliquam erat volutpat.</p>
</div>

Below is the CSS with values for IHTMLCSSStyleDeclaration::margin and IHTMLCSSStyleDeclaration::styleFloat applied.

body {
   width: 500px;
}   
.left {
   float: left;
   margin: 5px;
}
.right {
   float: right;
  margin: 5px;
}

You can see the result below. The first div sets IHTMLCSSStyleDeclaration::styleFloat to left, the second div sets IHTMLCSSStyleDeclaration::styleFloat to right, and the IHTMLCSSStyleDeclaration::styleFloat property is not used in the third div.

This example uses inline scripting and the IHTMLCSSStyleDeclaration::styleFloatproperty to swap images when the mouse moves over the button.

<img id="oSphere" scr="sphere.jpeg" style="float:left">
<img id="oCone" src="cone.jpeg" style="float:right">
:
<button onmouseover="oSphere.style.styleFloat='right'; 
    oCone.style.styleFloat='left'"
    onmouseout="oSphere.style.styleFloat='left'; 
    oCone.style.styleFloat='right'">
    Flip-flop images.
</button>
