Not necessarily; it depends on position of the float placeholder in the line box in which it sits. (This position of course depends on the width of the containing block.) I'm not sure, but I think your post is questioning how it's decided next to which line box a float sits. This is Issue 192,[1] and see [3,2] in particular. I am currently challenging the resolution to that issue.[3] > Regarding this testcase: > > http://www.gtalbot.org/BrowserBugsSection/css21testsuite/section9.5.1-vertical-positioning-float.html > > 1- The bright green square is right after the 3rd word (in the source > code) in those 2 examples while the width of the paragraph is large, wide > enough to still render the first 5 words of the paragraphs for the first > line box.

After flowing the first three words, there's still room for the float on the same line without requiring rewrapping those words into multiple line boxes, and so it is indeed placed on that line. (If there weren't room, it would be placed on the next line.)
