1 00:00:00,700 --> 00:00:06,580 The clear property is used to control the behavior of floating elements elements that are positioned 2 00:00:06,700 --> 00:00:10,440 after a floating element will float around it. 3 00:00:10,450 --> 00:00:16,360 This HDMI page shows an example of this the page contains three divs. 4 00:00:16,360 --> 00:00:17,510 One is blue. 5 00:00:17,590 --> 00:00:26,330 The other is red and one is yellow the blue div has a float left property attached to it. 6 00:00:26,330 --> 00:00:31,340 For this reason the text contained in the red div floats to the right. 7 00:00:32,160 --> 00:00:33,660 The right side of the blue div 8 00:00:40,430 --> 00:00:43,230 we can see the text wrap around the blue div 9 00:00:49,460 --> 00:00:54,320 in order to prevent the yellow div from floating to the right as well. 10 00:00:54,320 --> 00:01:04,010 We've put a clear declaration this forces the div below the blue div unlike the red div which does not 11 00:01:04,010 --> 00:01:06,260 have a clear Dec declaration.
