HTML was never intended to contain tags for formatting a document. HTML was intended to define the content of a document, like: When tags like <.font.>, and color attributes were added to the HTML 3.2 specification, it started a nightmare for web developers. Development of large web sites, where fonts and color information were added to every single page, became a long and expensive process. To solve this problem, the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) created CSS.
nIn HTML 4.0, all formatting could be removed from the HTML document, and stored in a separate CSS file. All browsers support CSS today.
The float property allows you to take an element in normal flow and place it as far to the left or right of the containing element as possible.
