If you float the :after element (display set to block), the next block level element should appear next to it, not under it.

See the example page for details. The example is rendered correctly in Opera 9.1 and Safari 2.0.4. The paragraph should be placed next to the :before pseudo tag.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. create a block element (called "a")
2. create a :before pseudo element on "a" with display: block and float: left and with an image content and fix width and height
3. try to position a block element (called "b") in "a" next to the :before element with float: left
Actual Results:  
Element "b" displayed under the :before and the containing element "a".

Expected Results:  
Element "b" ahould displayed next to :before element of "a".
