I'd like all my content to flow around an image. To do this, I simply did
img#me {
width: 300px;
float: left;
margin-right: 30px;
}
This works for text wraping, but other elements go behind it. For example
<style>
h2 {
background: black;
color: white;
}
</style>
<img id="me" src="http://paultarjan.com/paul.jpg" />
<h2>Things!</h2>
Then the h2 background flows right past the 30px margin. How should I do this instead?
