Make the right side of a div as an arrow

I have a simple div on a page:

<div>Some Text</div>

Is it possible, with CSS, to make it finish as an arrow. Something like:

UPDATE

This is the result I see with web-tiki proposed solution:

See the cuts on the arrow?

Thank You, Miguel

EDIT : If you need the arrow to adapt to the height of the text (considering it can display on several lines) You can use linear-gradient background for the arrow.

This can make it :

CSS :

div{
    height:40px;
    background:red;
    color:#fff;
    position:relative;
    width:200px;
    text-align:center;
    line-height:40px;
}
div:after{
    content:"";
    position:absolute;
    height:0;
    width:0;
    left:100%;
    top:0;
    border:20px solid transparent;
    border-left: 20px solid red;
}

HTML

<div class="text">Some Text<span class="arrow"></span>
</div>

CSS

.text {
    background-color:#ff0000;
    color:#fff;
    display:inline-block;
    padding-left:4px;
}
.arrow {
    border-style: dashed;
    border-color: transparent;
    border-width: 0.20em;
    display: -moz-inline-box;
    display: inline-block;    /* Use font-size to control the size of the arrow. */
    font-size: 100px;
    height: 0;
    line-height: 0;
    position: relative;
    vertical-align: middle;
    width: 0;
    background-color:#fff;   /* change background color acc to bg color */ 
    border-left-width: 0.2em;
    border-left-style: solid;
    border-left-color: #ff0000;
    left:0.25em;
}

Maybe is over your needs, but exists a solution, described in Pure CSS3 breadcrumb navigation, that allows to obtain boxes with arrow shape, stuck one inside each.

It is perfect for Breadcrumbs navigation and use another approach instead of simple borders to obtain desired result. More in detail, some CSS properties used are the following:

Generated content (support since IE8)
Box shadow (support since IE9)
2D Transformation (support since IE9)

Due to browsers support of these specific properties, this solution will work correctly since IE9 (not in IE8).

Here's a very simple way to make it, but it uses transform so your target browser has to support that property (most up-to-date browsers do).

body {
	padding-top: 95px;
}

.crumb-trail {
	background-color: #CCD2D8;
	color: #62717C;
	list-style: none;
	padding: 0px;
	margin: auto;
	width: 80%;
}

.crumb {
	padding: 4px 16px;
	position: relative;
}


.crumb:not(:last-child):before,
.crumb:not(:last-child):after {
	content: '';
	display: inline-block;
	height: 1px;
	width: 17px;
	position: absolute;
	right: -7px;
	background-color: #fff;
}

.crumb:before {
	top: 6px;
	-moz-transform: rotate(60deg);
	-ms-transform: rotate(60deg);
	-o-transform: rotate(60deg);
	-webkit-transform: rotate(60deg);
	transform: rotate(60deg);
}
.crumb:after {
	bottom: 6px;
	-moz-transform: rotate(120deg);
	-ms-transform: rotate(120deg);
	-o-transform: rotate(120deg);
	-webkit-transform: rotate(120deg);
	transform: rotate(120deg);
}

Yes its possible: in your html do somthing like this:

you have 2 divs one with class "arrow-right" and one with class "middle-div"

<div class="arrow-right"></div>
<div class="middle-div"></div>

in your css file do somthing like this:

.middle-div {
height: 120px;
float: right;
width: 230px;
background-color: green;
text-align: center;
vertical-align: middle;
line-height: 110px;
 }

.arrow-right {
height: 0px;
    border-top: 60px solid transparent;
    border-bottom: 60px solid transparent;
    border-left: 60px solid green;
    float: right;
}

enjoy.. :)

Try this code

  .arrow_box {
        position: relative;
        background: #88b7d5;
        border: 4px solid #c2e1f5;
    }
    .arrow_box:after, .arrow_box:before {
        left: 100%;
        top: 50%;
        border: solid transparent;
        content: " ";
        height: 0;
        width: 0;
        position: absolute;
        pointer-events: none;
    }

    .arrow_box:after {
        border-color: rgba(136, 183, 213, 0);
        border-left-color: #88b7d5;
        border-width: 89px;
        margin-top: -89px;
    }
    .arrow_box:before {
        border-color: rgba(194, 225, 245, 0);
        border-left-color: #c2e1f5;
        border-width: 95px;
        margin-top: -95px;
    }
