CSS and div layout

I am trying to create some html using divs instead of regular tables.

I want the div to #hdrdetail

appear below the #company

div - an orange div starting below the green div. I'm not sure how to use float.

Hope this is enough to answer.

#maindiv {
      background-color: yellow;
      height: 100 % ;
      width: 700px;
      margin: auto;
}
#logoleft {
      width: 25 % ;
      float: left;
      height: 40px;
      background-color: red;
}
#company {
      width: 50 % ;
      float: left;
      height: 80px;
      background-color: green;
}
#logoright {
      width: 25 % ;
      float: right;
      height: 40px;
      background-color: red;
}
#hdrdetail {
      float: none;
      width: 100 % ;
      height: 80px;
      background-color: orange;
}
#weekly_lefthdr {
      float: left;
      width: 50 % ;
      height: 60px;
      background-color: blue;
}
#weekly_righthdr {
      float: right;
      width: 50 % ;
      height: 60px;
      background-color: aliceblue;
}
      

<div id="maindiv">
  <div>
    <div id="logoleft"></div>
    <div id="company"></div>
    <div id="logoright"></div>
  </div>
  <div id="hdrdetail">
    <div id="weekly_lefthdr">
    </div>
    <div id="weekly_righthdr">
    </div>
  </div>
</div>

You don't need to install float: none;

, you should use clear: both;

ie instead ;

#hdrdetail {
  clear:both;
  width:100%;
  height:80px;
  background-color:orange;
}

      



float: none

will simply override the float of an element that in your case was not set anyway, but clear: both

will place the element under any floated elements above it.

Hope it helps.

Here is a fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/vcpfygpt/1/ . You need to delete float:none

in

#hdrdetail {
  clear:both;
  width: 100% ;
  height: 80px;
  background-color: orange;
}

      



and replace it with clear:both

. The rule clear:both

sets the condition that "no floats will be allowed on either the left or right side."
