Float CSS causing overflow auto, hidden, scroll?

Float CSS causing overflow auto, hidden, scroll?

The problem with the “float” css option is that your “divs” will have their height broken when you use it.

Let’s say that you have this code:

1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
< div class="top" >
< div class="1" >
text
< /div >
< div class="2" >
text
< /div >
< /div >

If you give “float=left;” to both class “1” and “2” and you put a border = “1” for class “top”, it will result something like a broken table. And the problem will be the “height”.

To get rid of the problem, add “overflow: auto;” on the “top” css lines.

“clear:both” isn’t working.

This method works for Mozilla Firefox and Chrome.
