You can either force a minimum height on the container, or you can add
an element with "clear" after the floated elements. Depends whether
you want to always force a minimum height (which might be a big empty
space), or just to force a minium height that's reliably bigger than
the float (to stop the floated elements hanging out of it).

No, because setting thhe height of a floated box definitely _won't_
set the height of its container. Read http://brainjar.com/css/positioning/
