Liquid Static Content

What is needed to fix the fluid-fixed layout issue?

HTML:

<div class="header">
    <div class="title">Title</div>
    <div class="options">Opt</div>
</div>

CSS: 

.header{margin:0;padding:0;}
.title{margin-right:50px;}
.options{float:right;width:50px;position:relative;top:0;left:auto;}

DEMO: http://jsfiddle.net/7Sdq6/

The provided link works, but there seems to be a missing element in the original example that needs fixing.

EDIT: Although I can position .options absolutely, I am facing issues with dropdown placement relative to .options

Answer №1

Demo

Simply include the following code:

display:inline-block;

Replace margin-right: 50px with width: calc(100% - 50px)

See Demo for reference

CSS Code:

.header {
    width:400px;
}
.title {
    width: calc(100% - 50px); /* Takes the width of the parent and subtracts the right floated div's width from it instead of using margin-right */
    background: red;
    display: inline-block;
}
.options {
    float:right;
    width:50px;
    background: blue;
}

Answer №2

To create a stable title with flexible options, utilize the following CSS code:

CSS

.title {
    margin:0 50px 0 0;
    float:left;
    width: 400px /*adjust to desired width*/
}
.options {overflow:hidden}

Answer №3

I finally cracked the code!

In order for the HTML to display correctly, the fixed content must come before the fluid content:

<div class="header">
    <div class="options">Opt</div>
    <div class="title">Title</div>
</div>
