I have a container div with a fixed width and a border of 1px. It contains two divs which have a fixed width and height and one is floating to the left and the other is floating the right. I use box-sizing: border-box
.
An example can be seen here https://jsfiddle.net/joker777/6r9dc5pw/5/
The problem is that the border size increases when I zoom out and it reduces the space inside the container because I use border-box
. This has the consequence that there is not enough space for the two floating divs.
#container {
width: 700px;
border: 1px solid;
overflow: hidden;
box-sizing: border-box;
}
#left-box {
width: 21.7%;
height: 150px;
float: left;
box-sizing: border-box;
}
#right-box {
width: 78.3%;
height: 150px;
float: right;
border-left: 1px solid;
box-sizing: border-box;
}
<div id="container">
<div id="left-box"></div>
<div id="right-box"></div>
</div>
