Attribute 'clear' outdated

[Agos]

Microsoft Visual Studio when I use this tag
<br clear="all" />
tells me:
Warning 1 Validation (XHTML 1.0 Transitional): Attribute 'clear' is
considered outdated. A newer construct is recommended.

What should I use instead?

Tank you

The "clear" attribute is *deprecated*, not "outdated".
It will still work...until it's *obsolete*.

See :

Search for "clear" in that document.

There's a couple of workarounds using CSS.

Thank you very much!
It doesn't complain now.
