I'm working on a layout, but for some reason I cannot clear the div floats, could someone please look at this for me and let me know what Im missing. and before commenting to much, yes I will be placing the css into a seperate file and including it when all is said and done, this is just a quick start on it.
ok what's going on is obvious if you just copy and paste the code and open, for some reason the last 3 div's are not going back to the left side as they should be.
thank you in advance for correcting my stupidity.
here's the code.
