DOMPDF does not support floats.

However I am listing many tables, and they are mainly key & value pairs. I would like 2 of these tables to appear side by side.

i.e. if I could use floats

HTML

<table id="stuff">
...
</table>

<table id="other-stuff">
...
</table>

CSS

table#stuff {
    float: left;
}

table#other-stuff {
    float: right;
}

What sort of workaround can I do to support this? Or is it impossible?
