How to get this layout

Green box has float:left, I can do this with fix margin-bottom to image but text amount can be increased or decreased.

Answer 1

I'm not sure I understand what you're asking -- are you asking how to ensure the text doesn't wrap to the bottom of the green box?

Just set a margin-left on the text div.

Edit: Oops, major typo.

Answer 2

Try

<div id="greenbox" style="float: left; width: 100px;"/>
<div id="content" style="margin-left: 100px;"/>

Answer 3

The easiest way is to give your content float: left; as well.

If that's not possible, then giving it margin-left equal to the width of the green box (plus its margin) will be your best bet.

  #stuff img {
    float:left;
    margin-right:25px;
  }

  #stuff p {
    margin-left:150px;
  }


  <div id="stuff">
    <img src="http://dummyimage.com/125x125/000/fff" />
