I had this problem the other day. I'm not sure why it is occurring and I am far from an expert on the topic but to solve it I added padding bottom to the floated divs and it gave the same effect I was looking for.

I can't tell from what you've posted but if the div giving you problems is empty, this could be an issue. If that is the case, try adding   into it.
