CSS Odd Behavior

[Adrian Crum-3]

The CSS class "clear" is supposed to clear both left and right floats.
And it did that until someone changed its behavior - now the clear class
clears left and right floats EXCEPT when it is used inside a screenlet.
That behavior is confusing - not only that, it is just plain wrong.

Whoever made that change did not understand HTML or CSS, and if you
don't understand something, you shouldn't change it.

is this all css files or just a particular one.
then can look at the history to see who did what.
