I have been attempting to create two divs positioned side by side, with one containing content and the other acting as a sidebar. Both of these divs are contained within another larger container div. Despite my efforts, I have not been successful in achieving this layout. Below is the CSS code that I have used:
#container {
width:1000px;
position: relative;
}
#content {
width:700px;
background-color: white;
border-top: 3px solid midnightblue;
padding: 80px 10px 0px 10px;
float:left;
}
#sidebar{
border-top: 3px solid midnightblue;
background-color:#E0E0E0;
padding: 20px;
width: 250px;
float:left;
}
The corresponding HTML code is as follows:
<div id="container">
<div id="content">
<p> This is my blog website. </p>
</div>
<div id="sidebar">
<p>This is the sidebar. </p>
</div>
</div>
I have tried changing the "float:left" property to "float:right" on the sidebar, as well as adding "display:table;" to the container, but neither solution has worked. The sidebar consistently appears below the content region instead of beside it.
There is also a wrapper class enclosing everything. When I remove the wrapper and the container, the layout works as intended. However, I require the presence of the wrapper class. Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
