Friends I have problems getting my sizing of divs correct.
Given the HTML: <div class="A">A B C <div class="B">E F G</div> </div> .A { width=100%; border:2px solid blue; } .B { width=50%; border:1px solid red; } I want to make the nested div half the width of the outer div. But they both expand to the fill width. Clearly I am missing something elementary. Some times I can make this work, some times I cannot, and I confess I have confused myself. cheers W PS I see some people on this list are using http://jsfiddle.net/. I used it to test this code but I cannot work out how to generate a link. It does not help that I cannot decipher the captcha to sign up. Perhaps I am not really a person.... -- Why is the legal status of chardonnay different to that of cannabis? worik.stan...@gmail.com 021-1680650, (03) 4821804 Aotearoa (New Zealand) I voted for love ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [css-d@lists.css-discuss.org] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
