CSS align images and text on same line


I have been searching and trying different methods for hours now. I just can't seem to get these two images and text all on one line. I want both the images and both text to all be on one line arranged image, text, image, text My images are coded like this with simple styles attacted

 <img style='height: 24px; width: 24px; margin-right: 4px;' src='design/like.png'/><h4 class='liketext'>$likes</h4>
 <img style='height: 24px; width: 24px; margin-right: 4px;' src='design/dislike.png'/><h4 class='liketext'>$dislikes</h4>

My "liketext" class is just has a simple text color modifier. With this code the first image and text are on the same line, and the the next image and text is on the line below. I want all four objects to be on the same line. I really have tried to solve this question on my own and appreciate any help given and hopefully this post can help others as well thank you!


Solution

  • You can either use (on the h4 elements, as they are block by default)

    display: inline-block;
    

    Or you can float the elements to the left/rght

    float: left;
    

    Just don't forget to clear the floats after

    clear: left;
    

    More visual example for the float left/right option as shared below by @VSB:

    <h4> 
        <div style="float:left;">Left Text</div>
        <div style="float:right;">Right Text</div>
        <div style="clear: left;"/>
    </h4>
