div:after {
content: ".";
clear: both;
display: block;
height: 0;
visibility: hidden;
}
The above code is used popularly to clear float elements. But it
causes layout problem in IE 6 and 7 because the generated element in
IE 6 and 7 doesn't behave correctly. Is there a workaround?

I had just tested it again. The result is fine.
P.S. IE7 needs "line-height: 0; font-size:0;" to prevent jumpy space
issue. Thanks Davey Faherty for the help.
