Question

This is my CSS code;

#wrap {
    width:50em;
    max-width: 94%;
    margin: 0 auto;
    background-color:#fff;  
}

#head {
    width:50em;
    height:10em;
    max-width: 100%;
    margin: 0 auto;
    text-align:center;
    position: relative;
}

#css-table { 
    display: table; 
    margin: 1em auto;
    position: relative;
    width:50em;
    max-width: 100%;            
}

#css-table .col { 
    display: table-cell; 
    width: 20em;
    padding: 0px;
    margin: 0 auto;
}

#css-table .col:nth-child(even) { 
    background: #fff;
}

#css-table .col:nth-child(odd) { 
    background: #fff;
    border-right: 4px double #b5b5b5;
}

And my HTML code;

<div id="cont">
    <div id="css-table">
        <div class="col">123</div>
        <div class="col">123</div>
    </div>
</div>

When I scale the Firefox window, the table scales fine even down to 300px width viewport…just like I want to. But in Chrome, the table looks normal only when the viewport is wider than 50em. If I narrow the Chrome window, the table bleeds out on the right side of the wrap.

Is there a reason why is Chrome doing this?

Answer 1

Create a div and give it a styling to display block and a max width. You may use traditional <table> and give it a styling of 100% width.
