At the bottom of the page (http://www.imag3.com/test/ same as previous URL) there is a sample of the visual effect I am looking for. However, this is a fragile solution that could break with changes in font size, length of h1, length of p element etc. A typical form for a blockquote has an extra inset. In the sample as shown in the upper part of the example page, there is no left margin on the h1, p, or blockquote. The only way I know of to simulate the left margin is to add a margin-right to the floating dive. But this will give the same apparent left-margin to the h1, p, and blockquote. I was hoping the blockquote could be treated so that it would be shown with the little extra indent that is typical for blockquote. As mentioned by Tim, this problem will also be evident in lists. I was hoping that any solution here would also transfer to lists. I am leaning toward "impossible" at the moment. But I have seen folks on this list contribute css suggestions that were absolutely amazing to me in my limited css. So, I'm still holding out some hope that there is a proper solution.
