Attach a class to the <img> tag itself, then you don't need to specify 
width. I'd quote the specs, but can't seem to connect to the W3C site at 
the moment.

css .myimg { float:left; more things if needed}
html <img src="myimg.gif" class="myimg" />

Or, use a descendent selector
css: div.myblock img { float:left; more things if needed}
html: <div class="myblock"> <p><img src="myimg.gif" />blablabla</p></div>
