41,203 | 2 | null | 41,198 | 6 | null | In the markup after the image, insert something like `<div style="clear:left"/>`. A bit messy, but it's the easiest way I've found.
And while you're at it, put a bit of margin on that image so the text doesn't butt up against it.

To generate a random string, concatenate characters drawn randomly from the set of acceptable symbols until the string reaches the desired length.

Floating makes the parents width not be stretched by the child, try placing the image without the float. If you take the float off, it should give you the desired effect.
