CSS: Force float to do a whole new line

Question

I have a bunch of float: left elements and some are SLIGHTLY bigger than others. I want the newline to break and have the images float all the way to the left instead of getting stuck on a bigger element.

Here is the page I'm talking about : link

If they are all the same size if works beautifully : link

Thanks! (I'd rather not get into javascript or server side scripting if I don't have to)

Well, if you really need to use float declarations, you have two options:

1. Use clear: left on the leftmost items - the con is that you'll have a fixed number of columns
2. Make the items equal in height - either by script or by hard-coding the height in the CSS

Both of these are limiting, because they work around how floats work. However, you may consider using display: inline-block instead of float, which will achieve the similar layout. You can then adjust their alignment using vertical-align.
