Topic: Clearer
<div class="clearer"></div>Does this actually do anything?
I don't HAVE a signature, ok?
Re: Clearer
Yes. It forces a containing box to wrap floated elements. Try setting div.clearer{display:none} in your stylesheet and you will see exactly what it does provided you view in Firefox or Opera.

Re: Clearer
Could I just use <br> instead? Is there anything potentially wrong with doing this?

It stretches funny in Firefox and Explorer, and removing clearer or setting the css to none removes this behavior.

Re: Clearer
No you can't just change it to <br />, that wouldn't accomplish anything unless you made it <br style="clear:both" /> which would then cause the same problem.
There was a discussion about this a few days ago with the solution. See here
