A div next to a div

[phppup]

It seemed simple when I thought of it, but multiple variations are NOT producing the result I imagined.

Essentially, I have a single table that I want centered on a webpage, with a second table to the right.

<center><div>
  content 
</div> </center>

<div style="float: right;">
  content
 </div>

I enclosed the tables in <div> tags but my results did not improve.

I do not want two side by side tables that are centered. I am trying to have one centered table with a second to its right.

You could use modern browser technology with flex or grid. Or add a third div to the left and use vw units to size all three.

You can also try applying "display: inline-block;" to your div classes.
