That did the trick. &nbsp;I'm trying to get a better handle on the CLEAR property. &nbsp;The fact that #rightSidebar {clear: left;} works makes sense, but I still don't understand why #main {clear: right;} doesn't work. &nbsp; Can someone explain?

what's confusing with this is does clear: right mean it clears everything to the right or does it mean that it clears everything that is float: right?

Three DIVs are set with float: left - #leftSidebar, #main, and #rightSidebar. &nbsp;#main is also set with clear: right. &nbsp;So why is #rightSidebar still on the right? &nbsp;Shouldn't it drop below?<br />

Take a look at the following page:

http://jaginc.com/dev/indexClearSample.html

Three DIVs are set with float: left - #leftSidebar, #main, and #rightSidebar.  #main is also set with clear: right.  So why is #rightSidebar still on the right?  Shouldn't it drop below?

CSS - clear: right not working as I would expect.

Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) is a language used for describing the look and formatting of a document written in a markup language. Usually used to change web pages and user interfaces written in HTML, it can also be applied to any kind of XML document. CSS is designed primarily to distinguish the content of a document from its presentation.

HTML (HyperText Markup Language) is the main markup language for creating web pages and other information to be displayed in a web browser, providing both the structure and content for what is sent from a web server through the use of tags. The current implementation of the HTML specification is HTML5.
