Proposal A: Change # For run-in boxes, this property applies to the final block box to # which the run-in box belongs. to | For a run-in element that is rendered as an 'inline' element, | this property combines with the 'clear' value on the block box | that contains it, resulting in used 'clear' value that honors | the requirements of both elements: 'left' and 'none' combine | to 'left', 'right' and 'none' combine to 'right, 'left' and | 'right' combine to 'both', and 'both' and any other value | combine to 'both'. Proposal B: Change # For run-in boxes, this property applies to the final block box to # which the run-in box belongs. to | Note that while this property applies to 'run-in' elements that | render as 'block' boxes, it does not apply to 'run-in' elements | that render as 'inline' boxes.
