I have a layout that I can not seem to make work. Using a float:right, I
can
get the numbered items to wrap as desired around "rightdiv". The problem
is,
this is a dynamic list, and "5" shouldn't come before "4" in the list. I
also want "6" to be aligned left.
So basically, I really want the items to be floated left, but if I apply
a
left float, the wrapping looks like crap. "rightdiv" can have varying
heights, so using a fixed margin on it is not an option.

Is what I am wanting even possible?

display: inline-block is just the thing for this, but it isn't supported
by Firefox (Opera does support it however).
You're right... display: inline-block would be perfect... if there was
cross-browser support.
