I consider the extra span (obsolete) presentational markup, you can 
achieve this with pure CSS and the :after pseudo element:

<div id="toolbar">

</div>

#toolbar:after {
     display: block;
     clear: both;
     content: " ";
}


For IE to trigger auto-clear we need to trigger layout:

* html #toolbar, *:first-child+html {
     zoom: 1;
}


The only situation where the extra element is needed is when you run 
into the infamous guillotine bug in IE 6.
