This is an excerpt from my test -David Baron.

This should be floating left and be 30% wide. Its border should touch its container's border.

This is text in the containing div. It should span the width of the div up to the edge of the float. Therefore its left edge should touch the float and its right edge should touch the border of the containing div.

This should be floating right and be 30% wide. Its border should touch its container's border.

This is text in the containing div. It should span the width of the div up to the edge of the float. Therefore its right edge should touch the float and its left edge should touch the border of the containing div.
