<includeonly>:''This template documentation is [[Centiare:Template doc page pattern|transcluded]] from [[{{FULLPAGENAME}}/doc]]'' [<span class="plainlinks">[{{fullurl:{{FULLPAGENAMEE}}/doc|action=edit}} edit]</span>]</includeonly>

This template adds <tt><div style="clear: both"></div></tt>;
for technical XHTML details see [[Template talk:Clear]].

== Documentation ==

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

=== Usage ===

<nowiki>{{subst:Clear}}</nowiki>

The template may also be transcluded, but as the
markup provided is unlikely to change or improve,
there is little justification for transclusion
overhead.

== Example without the {clear} template==

[[Image:HeidelbergTun.jpg|200px|left]]
{{lorem}}
==New section==
See how this section starts at the right of the image, with the line actually overlapping the image

<div style="clear: both"></div> 
== Example with the {clear} template==

[[Image:HeidelbergTun.jpg|200px|left]]
{{lorem}}
'''<nowiki>{{clear}}</nowiki>'''
<div style="clear: both"></div>
==New section==
See how this looks much better?

==How it works==
This is what {{Tl|clear}} actually does, ignore the <tt><noinclude></tt> stuff shown by <nowiki>{{msgnw:clear}}</nowiki>:

<tt>{{msgnw:clear}}</tt>

=== See also ===
* {{Lts|clear}}
* {{Lts|clearleft}}: Delays content until left column is complete.
* {{Lts|clearright}}: Delays content until right column is complete.
* {{Lts|-}} is similar but technically different

== Discussion ==

''The fine points of {{Tl|clear}} vs. {{Tl|-}} are discussed in [[Template talk:-#-_versus_clear|Template talk:-]].''
