tibberous Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 Basically, I have two div's, that are supposed to be beside each other. The right one needs to be 200px, the left one needs to take up the rest of the screen. I thought about making the two divs %99 and %1, and then sticking a 200px wide div in the %1 one to force it to stretch larger, but is there a proper way to do this?
