I have a paragraph with a floating image to the right:

<img src="foo.png" style="float: right" /><p>Blablabla</p>

<p> next paragraph</p>>

If the first paragraph is short, the image also floats besides the next paragraph.

I want Next paragraph to start after the image. How do I do that?

(just wrapping them in a div doesn't make any difference..)

Check out the list of available CSS Properties at http://www.w3schools.com/cssref/[^].
Also a nice place to start learning HTML.

Just as an addition, for germans, the canonical place to go is http://de.selfhtml.org/ . I'm using that when I know what I'm looking for.
