ShawnaP has it right! At first you need to take the dog out frequently, and try to anticipate when it makes sense that he'd have to pee - for instance, if he drank a lot of water, try to get him out soon after.
When he pees outside, lavish him with praises - dogs want nothing more than to make their people happy!
If the dog is peeing out of fear, that will likely take longer to break (my dog was potty trained after a week, but still peed a little bit out of fear when we scolded him for chewing or eating things he shouldn't - that only lasted a couple of more weeks). If the dog pees because he's scared, be wary that you might not know his background (the dog we adopted had been very abused), and be careful to not blow up at him, hit him, or freak out over the accidents. A simple "naughty" with a disappointed tone of voice will let him know you aren't happy.
Most of all, be patient! If you aren't lazy and do your job of taking him out regularly, he'll be good in no time! :-)

I had a dog, he was a stray, and when he first came he had to be inside cause he was injured and so he wasn't housebroke and everytime he would start to go to the bathroom my mom would clap her hands at him and say "NO NO NO" and chase him outside. He's a mix of some kind, and there was a debate about whether he was part boxer or part pit bull.

If you or someone in your house can't devote more of your day to him a big part of it is limiting his food and water access to when you can. Then take him out immediately afterward. Also when he pees or poops you have to wipe it up with a paper towel and take him out with the paper towel. This way he learns taht he's supposed to do that outside. That's how we housebroke our dog, a sheltie.

How old is the dog? When does it potty on the floor? You haven't given enough information. Dogs piddle for many reasons.

Short answer--take him to a trainer.
If you do it yourself, you need to ignore the wrong behavior and reward the good behavior with treats, according to these animal psychology shows. See a trainer. PetSmart has dog obedience training classes.

hang a bell on the door. everytime you see your dog peeing or wants to go outside take your dogs paw and ring it. do that everytime. If they do their job outside praise your dog and give it a treat. continue doing this and your dog will learn.

this worked with my dog, but it depends on how much time you can spend with your dog. you have to catch them within a minute of peeing on the floor, because they have a short term memory. if you see it peeing on the floor, turn it around, stick its nose in it, and say "no, bad dog" once you do this a few times, it will learn, and it will start doing it less and less.

Take him outside when he has to go and give him treats and praise when he goes. Don't rub his nose in it if he does have an accident in the house, it is cruel and doesn't accomplish anything.
