[CSS] clear:both cross browser

Source: How To Clear Floats Without Structural Markup

修正 CSS 對於 float 區塊, 使用 clear:both 無效的解法



Clearing the divs has always been a solution for web 2.0 sites but there are many ways to implement it. The reason of this post is not to go in the details but giving a simple cross-browser css solution. BTW I prefer this css solution rather than adding the ugly empty clear div all over your html and polluting the markup.

Bad Solution :

<div style="clear:both"></div>
Perfect Cross Browser Solution:

add the css below to your site wide CSS file. and then apply the class clearfix to any containers that need to be cleared, or the containers in which you are adding the clear-div. and yes remove the clear-div of-course.

.clearfix:after {
content: ".";
display: block;
clear: both;
visibility: hidden;
line-height: 0;
height: 0;
}

.clearfix {
display: inline-block;
}

html[xmlns] .clearfix {
display: block;
}

* html .clearfix {
height: 1%;
overflow: visible;
}
