    I found out a solution to it by myself. To make the child div appear on the top right corner of the parent div i set its position to absolute and top and left to 0. I solved the width problem by dynamically setting the child’s width to the parent’s width using jquery.

    Note: the parent element’s position should be set to relative for this to work on firefox.
