Clearing a float container without source markup

Clearing a float container without source markup

Further to the Eric Meyer article mentioned on Sept 02, here is a further article about ensuring that floated elements are contained properly within container elements which are not floated.

This is another approach to the issue, one which does not require any changes to the html. This method is regarded as a better solution as it does not require bloating the html and also because some browsers have issues with the first method.

I personally found that Opera came up with some intersting visual effects using the Eric Meyer method so I will try this method instead. I haven't yet though so can't vouch for it!

Thanks to Keith Gaughan for alerting me to this article...
