CSS two div tags, one is dynamic on width and going to new line but want it next to other no matter what.

Asked by brad2575 in Cascading Style Sheets (CSS)

Tags: CSS

Hello,

I have 2 div tags, one for a side menu navigation and one for the main content.  The main content can be dynamic and when it is larger then the container div size it forces it to go to a new line (instead of staying next to the side menu navigation).  No matter what I want the 2 div tags to stay next to each other and I can not figure out why this is not working.

Below are the 2 div tags code.

I have other sub div tags inside the side menu and the main body but these are the two that surround them all.  If you need more (or the full code) let me know.
