I don't really think this should be seen as a bug. Long strings break, unless you used  ... Just make sure your line-heights accommodate, which I'd say they do. Kevin On Wed, Oct 26, 2011 at 3:05 PM, Chris F.A. Johnson wrote: > On Wed, 26 Oct 2011, John wrote: > > > http://coffeeonmars.com/**

2011-10-26 Thread Ingo Chao
Jukka already presented a solution without the float, but with a css table. In your setting, you wanted the floating div to have a shrink-to-fit width (CSS2.1: 10.3.5) that equals to the width of the image, so the width of the text without breaks must not become the preferred width of the float.
