    <p>This is a common issue when working with floats. There are several common solutions, which I have ordered by personal preference (best approach first):</p> <ol> <li><p>Use the ::after CSS pseudo element. This is know as the 'clearfix', and works IE8 and up. If you need compatibility with earlier versions of IE, <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/211383/which-method-of-clearfix-is-best">this answer should help</a>. <a href="http://jsfiddle.net/dX2Xh/74/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Example</a>.</p> <pre><code>.parentelement::after { content: ""; display: table; clear: both; } </code></pre></li> <li><p>Add the two floats into a container with the CSS attribute <code>overflow: auto</code> or <code>overflow: hidden</code>. However, this approach can cause issues (e.g. when a tooltip overlaps the edges of the parent element a scrollbar will appear). <a href="http://jsfiddle.net/dX2Xh/1/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Example</a>.</p> <pre><code>&lt;div style="overflow: auto"&gt; &lt;div style="float: left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style="float: left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;/div&gt; </code></pre></li> <li><p>Add a set height to the parent element. <a href="http://jsfiddle.net/dX2Xh/4/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Example</a>.</p> <pre><code>&lt;div style="height: 200px"&gt; &lt;div style="float: left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style="float: left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;/div&gt; </code></pre></li> <li><p>Make the parent element a float. <a href="http://jsfiddle.net/dX2Xh/2/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Example</a>.</p> <pre><code>&lt;div style="float: left"&gt; &lt;div style="float: left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style="float: left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;/div&gt; </code></pre></li> <li><p>Add a div after the floats with <code>clear: both</code>. <a href="http://jsfiddle.net/dX2Xh/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Example</a>.</p> <pre><code>&lt;div style="float: left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style="float: left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style="clear: both"&gt;&lt;/div&gt; </code></pre></li> </ol>

    1. COAnd do NOT do #1 for adding additional blank, non-semantic elements that just clutter things up.

    2. COI actually tried no.1 and it didn't work (I'm working in WP so I probably put it in slightly the wrong place in the template), but no.2 works a treat, thanks!

    3. COThank you for the very thorough explanation. Every time I have run into this issue I have always used #1 even though it is so ugly but I had not seen a different solution. I ran into a case where adding an extra div was not an option, did a little extra digging and found your answer. Now I am armed and dangerous! lol. Thanks again.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
