Yeah, I've used floats to do this, but the problem I ran into is dt's
without an accompanying dd. This makes the next dd move up into the
space left for that missing dd, which means you have a term aligned
with
an incorrect definition. I think the way I worked around it was just
to
give everything a dd, even if all id had in it was
Not if you put a clear on <dt>.
<dt> without <dd> sounds like misuse of definition lists.
Well, it's not always easy to classify real world content - here's my
example, and I do actually have a dt without a dd because I figured
they are both just lists. It's "meeting minutes" in the yellow box:

Would it be more correct to make "meeting minutes" a one-item list?
I have (so far) made the horrifying decision to not use floats and to
put in a <br /> between items. The float solution wasn't working
because I have limited horizontal space and some of my dt's are much
longer than others. It just looked awful.
Thanks for all of the feedback so far - it's been very informative.
This is the first time I've tried to use definition lists.
