Using clearing elements to prevent margin collapse

Sent by IChao on 11 July 2004 08:08

Michael,

your div.clearer has a font-size: 1px;
I think this is "to small" for
<div class="clearer">&nbsp;</div>

a font-size: 2px will be better to prevent collapsing margins (Moz 1.7Win).

personally, I use font-size: 1pt; in my clearfloat

If I'm not wrong, Zoe did make a test case on this.
