There are a number of questions addressing this issue, but none addressing vertical alignment

There are a number of questions addressing this issue, but none addressing vertical alignment relative to a floated image or block-level element.

...
<td>
  <span style="vertical-align: middle">This should be vertically centered relative to the image</span>
  <img src="something" style="float: right" />
</td>
...

This does not produce the desired result, since the image is floating. I have tried a lot of things, including adding a after the tag, making the span display as a block level element, and other ways to position the image (aligned to the right of the containing ) without floating it, but have not had success.

UPDATE:
I have been unable to get any of the proposed solutions working. If this can’t be done, so be it, but I’m leaving this open until I can be sure it can’t. I’ve created a jsFiddle with the HTML, in hopes that someone can write CSS which demonstrates a solution.

    This can not be done without modifying the given document structure, at least given CSS2.1. I’d still love to see a CSS3 solution, if anyone can provide one.
