  Float is a CSS positioning property. To understand its purpose and origin, we can look to print design.

  This website is especially great for our class because we have read about floats and have incorporated floats into our project. This gives the basic information about floats and talks about using them.

  • In web design, page elements with the CSS float property applied to them are just like the images in the print layout where the text flows around them. Floated elements remain a part of the flow of the web page. This is distinctly different than page elements that use absolute positioning. Absolutely positioned page elements are removed from the flow of the webpage, like when the text box in the print layout was told to ignore the page wrap. Absolutely positioned page elements will not affect the position of other elements and other elements will not affect them, whether they touch each other or not.

  • Techniques for Clearing Floats

    If you are in a situation where you always know what the succeeding element is going to be, you can apply the clear: both; value to that element and go about your business. This is ideal as it requires no fancy hacks and no additional elements making it perfectly semantic. Of course things don't typically work out that way and we need to have more float-clearing tools in our toolbox.

    • The Empty Div Method is, quite literally, an empty div. <div style="clear: both;"></div>.
  • Double Margin Bug - Another thing to remember when dealing with IE 6 is that if you apply a margin in the same direction as the float, it will double the margin. Quick fix: set display: inline on the float, and don't worry it will remain a block-level element.

  The Empty Div Method is, quite literally, an empty div. <div style="clear: both;"></div>.
  
  The Overflow Method relies on setting the overflow CSS property on a parent element.
  
  The Easy Clearing Method uses a clever CSS pseudo selector (:after) to clear floats.

  • This method is scorned by semantic purists since its presence has no contexual meaning at all to the page and is there purely for presentation. Of course in the strictest sense they are right, but it gets the job done right and doesn’t hurt anybody.
  • relies on setting the overflow CSS property on a parent element. If this property is set to auto or hidden on the parent element, the parent will expand to contain the floats, effectively clearing it for succeeding elements
  • lso bear in mind that the overflow property isn’t specifically for clearing floats. Be careful not to hide content or trigger unwanted scrollbars.
  • However if you find yourself adding a new div just to apply this, it is equally as unsemantic as the empty div method and less adaptable. Also bear in mind that the overflow property isn’t specifically for clearing floats. Be careful not to hide content or trigger unwanted scrollbars.
  • This will apply a small bit of content, hidden from view, after the parent element which clears the float. This isn’t quite the whole story, as additional code needs to be used to accomodate for older browsers.
  • Make sure you don’t have any images that do this, use overflow: hidden to cut off excess.
