Floating plots in notebook?

Is there a way to make plots float? Like in floating divs? Say, I have a two plots:

plot(sin, 0, pi).show()
plot(cos, 0, pi).show()

Right now this code produces two pictures, one on top of the other:

--------
|plot 1|
--------
|plot 2|
--------

But my screen is wide enough to show them alongside like:

----------------
|plot 1| plot 2|
----------------

It would be nice to have an option allowing to produce a few floating divs from pictures.

Thanks for the answer too! I have the same question about approach with html, is there a way to use additional parameters, like axis labels to ticks? Again, preferably separately for each plot.

You can use further options with the plot command, for example:

html.table([[plot(sin,-pi,pi,axes_labels=['X','Y']),plot(cos,-pi,pi,gridlines=True)]])

Not playing with html, but glueing the plots in a single one, you can use GraphicsArray:

sage: from sage.plot.graphics import GraphicsArray
sage: GraphicsArray([plot(sin, 0, pi), plot(cos, 0, pi)])
Launched png viewer for Graphics Array of size 1 x 2

Thanks for the answer! But in that case where do I put additional parameters like, for example, axis_labels? It would be nice to be able to control additional parameters separately for each plot. I tried to put them in GraphicsArray.show but that cause an error:

RuntimeError: should never launch viewer in embedded mode

and also affected all plots.
