»In zwanzig Jahren wirst Du mehr enttäuscht sein von den Dingen die Du nicht getan hast, als von den Dingen, die Du getan hast. Also wirf die Leinen los. Verlasse den sicheren Hafen. Lass den Passatwind in Deine Segel wehen. Erforsche. Träume. Entdecke.« Mark Twain

Developer’s Notebook: Forward-thinking CSS float-clearing | Pathfinder Development | Software Developers | Blogs
The art of float-clearing - getting containers to honor the height of floated elements inside of them - has slowly evolved over the past several years as Safari has taken over many Mac desktops, IE5/Mac has atrophied, IE7 has slowly caught on, and our use of CSS filters has improved. I'd like to share a slight variation on the state of the art that I believe makes for much cleaner markup. But first, a little background.March 16 2010
Clearing a float container without source markup
When a float is contained within a container box that has a visible border or background, that float does not automatically force the container's bottom edge down as the float is made taller. Instead the float is ignored by the container and will hang down out of the container bottom like a flag. Those familiar only with Explorer for Windows may scratch their heads and say "That's not right!" True, IE/Win does enclose a float within a container 'automatically', but only if the container element happens to possess the MS-only quality called hasLayout. The W3C suggests placing a "cleared" element last in the container box, which is then recognized by the container height, forcing the container to enclose the float above that cleared element too.
