  css div height webdesign float layout hacks

  • The parent container doesn't stretch down to enclose its children. The W3C recommendations specify that this is correct behaviour
  • Probably the simplest and a popular solution is to add an extra DIV with the style clear:both below your floated elements.
  • Adding overflow:auto to your container element will also achieve the desired effect.
  • In standards compliant browsers this method makes use of the rarely used pseudo :after class to append a single "block level" full stop after your floated child elements with a clear:both rule specified which forces the container to stretch down to enclose its children.
  • Adding a float:left or float:right to the container DIV will also force it to contain its children.
  • ou'll have to add a clear rule to any element immediately following the container in the source.
