Floats and keeping the height of a div

I had a problem today of how to keep the height of a div with floating elements inside of it.

I came across the solution of putting a div which clears both of the floating divs in the containing box using:

<div class=”clearfloat”></div>

and in the stylesheet:

.clearfloat {
clear: both;
}

This seems to do what I wanted.

For an example see here:

Text Generator

I always seem to need filler text for various things, especially web design. I have various pieces of filler text in text files but it’s never convenient to stop what I’m doing and hunt out the text files so I was very please to come across this great resource:

Dummy Text Generator

It will generate various types of filler text and you can set the number of characters and words. It even puts in the paragraph tags for you so you can just copy the text and paste it straight into an html document. It also has some advanced options where you can change the font and it generates the stylesheet to go with the text you select.

A great timesaver and definitely a site for my bookmarks!
