Usage

  • {{Clear}}
  • {{Clear|left}}
  • {{Clear|right}}

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

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

Documentation

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

Rationale for transclusion

The template may also be substituted, but it's been changed at least once, and won't confuse newbies this way.

Example without the {{clear}} template
