html - Left and right Divs in CSS -


i want left div box, , right div box. right div shoulld 300px wide , show right beside left div.

i awful css, , despite trying solutions 5 other stack overflow questions similer one, im still not able figure out.

i have tried display: inline; have tried tables/table cells. have tried fixed , auto margins have tried padding. have searched last hour , continued tinker.

i @ wits end stupid language , need help.

i have news feed on homepage, want 300px box on right of main article show news. have boiled down simple possible components test solutions, , none of them appear work @ all.

my style.css:

#left {     float: left;     margin-right: 400px; } #right {     float: right;     width: 298px; }

my html file:

<div id="right">     latest news </div> <div id="left">     <p>my problem comes when p tag gets long. ok when short, regardless of wrapping, gets screwed second long , driving me bonkers.</p> </div>

you can keep #left block element regular inflow content, not floated.

the right margin provide space news feed on right grow needed.

#left {    margin-right: 320px;    border: 1px dotted gray;  }  #right {    float: right;    width: 298px;    border: 1px dotted gray;  }
