Usage[edit source]

Note there are no parameters for this template

{{Clear}} Included in page code, inserts the following code:

<div style="clear: both"></div>

This template adds <div style="clear: both"></div>; for technical XHTML details see Template talk:Clear.

Documentation[edit source]

{{clear}}: Makes content wait until existing content is completed in all columns. Often used to stop text from flowing next to unrelated images.

Usage[edit source]

{{subst:Clear}}

The template may also be transcluded, but as the markup provided is unlikely to change or improve, there is little justification for transclusion overhead.
