• Try adding some content to the div:

   <div class="clear">&nbsp;</div> 
  

  A much better way to do this, though, is clearfix.

  Mayur : Hi sorry but it's not working

   

  Pekka : @Mayur strange! Then I don't know what it could be, sorry. Are you sure the CSS is getting loaded?

  Mayur : Pekka sorry, now i have tried a clearfix property its working thanks a lot....
