Question

I would like to have two tags side-by-side as if being two columns.

So far I have

<div id="wrapper">
    <div id="1">text here</div>
    <div id="2">text here</div>
    <div style="clear:both"></div>
</div>

What I’m having difficulty with is the CSS for the divs. Any help?

Answer 1

Check out the float property.

Quick example:

#1, #2 {
  float: left;
  width: 49%;
}
