Try:

<div class="div_26" style="width:10px;height:10px;overflow:auto; ">
    <div style="width:21px;">
        <div style="float:left;width:7px;height:8px;"></div>
        <div style="float:left;width:7px;height:8px;"> </div>
        <div style="float:left;width:7px;height:8px;"></div>
        <div style="clear:both"></div>
    </div>
</div>
