Align image to left of text on same line - Twitter Bootstrap3

Currently I have a paragraph heading and an image to its right, on the same line:

<div class="paragraphs">
  <div class="row">
    <div class="span4">
      <div class="content-heading"><h3>Experience &nbsp </h3><img src="../site/img/success32.png"/></div>
      <p>Donec id elit non mi porta gravida at eget metus. Etiam porta sem malesuada magna mollis euismod. Donec sed odio dui.</p>
    </div>
  </div>
</div>

This works fine - the content-heading and the image are on the same line. However, when I put the image before the content-heading div, they are no longer on the same line. This is what I want to achieve - image then content-heading - on the same line.

Using Twitter Bootstrap classes may be the best choice :

• pull-left makes an element floating left
• clearfix allows the element to contain floating elements (if not already set via another class)

<div class="paragraphs">
  <div class="row">
    <div class="span4">
      <div class="clearfix content-heading">
          <img class="pull-left" src="../site/img/success32.png"/>
          <h3>Experience &nbsp </h3>
      </div>
      <p>Donec id elit non mi porta gravida at eget metus. Etiam porta sem malesuada magna mollis euismod. Donec sed odio dui.</p>
    </div>
  </div>
</div>

Starting with Bootstrap v3.3.0 you can use .media-left and .media-body

<div class="media">
    <span class="media-left">
        <img src="../site/img/success32.png" alt="...">
    </span>
    <div class="media-body">
        <h3 class="media-heading">Experience</h3>
        ...
    </div>
</div>

Documentation: https://getbootstrap.com/docs/3.3/components/#media

You can use floating:

<div class="paragraphs">
  <div class="row">
    <div class="span4">
      <img style="float:left" src="../site/img/success32.png"/>
      <div class="content-heading"><h3>Experience &nbsp </h3></div>
      <p style="clear:both">Donec id elit non mi porta gravida at eget metus. Etiam porta sem malesuada magna mollis euismod. Donec sed odio dui.</p>
    </div>
  </div>
</div>

If you want the following <p> to stay at the same line too, remove its

style="clear:both"

but then you should add

<div style="clear:both"></div>

after it.

For Bootstrap 3.

<div class="paragraphs">
  <div class="row">
    <div class="col-md-4">
      <div class="content-heading clearfix media">
           <h3>Experience &nbsp </h3>
           <img class="pull-left" src="../site/img/success32.png"/>
      </div>
      <p>Donec id elit non mi porta gravida at eget metus. Etiam porta sem malesuada magna mollis euismod. Donec sed odio dui.</p>
    </div>
  </div>
</div>

I would use Bootstrap's grid to achieve the desired result. The class="img-responsive" works nicely. Something like:

	<div class="container-fluid">
		<div class="row">
			<div class="col-md-3"><img src="./pictures/placeholder.jpg" class="img-responsive" alt="Some picture" width="410" height="307"></div>
			<div class="col-md-9"><h1>Heading</h1><p>Your Information.</p></div>
        </div>
	</div>

Use Nesting column

To nest your content with the default grid, add a new .row and set of .col-sm-* columns within an existing .col-sm-* column. Nested rows should include a set of columns that add up to 12 or fewer (it is not required that you use all 12 available columns).

<div class="row">
  <div class="col-sm-9">
    Level 1: .col-sm-9
    <div class="row">
      <div class="col-xs-8 col-sm-6">
        Level 2: .col-xs-8 .col-sm-6
      </div>
      <div class="col-xs-4 col-sm-6">
        Level 2: .col-xs-4 .col-sm-6
      </div>
    </div>
  </div>
</div>
