Clearing Problem
Reported on 1 February 2007
http://www.quirksmode.org/bugreports/archives/2007/02/Clearing_Bug_on_Firefox_Safari_and_Opera.html

If you have an element set to float:right; and you follow it with another
element set to clear:right; float:right; and then follow those first two
elements with a third element set to float:left;, the third element will not
float next to the first element, even though it is not actually being cleared.

This bug is also present when the directions are reversed.

(ppknote: Strictly speaking this is a bug in Explorer, but I find Dan's
reasoning compelling enough to publish his report unaltered. Besides, other web
developers will conceivably run across this behaviour in Safari, Opera, or
Firefox. Be sure to click the "real world example" link on the test page.)

Test page 2: http://level39.com/clearing-bug/layout.html

Fixed as of a local debug build of WebKit r20211 with Safari 2.0.4 (419.3) on
Mac OS X 10.4.8 (8L127).
