    Hi,

    lets say you have element with 300px width and two childs in it with 150px width, 0 padding, 0 margin and inline-block. Why they wont fit perfectly in one line? Same is with percentages. Someone can help, explain?

    Inline block unfortunately includes space for HMTL white-space.

    There are techniques for dealing with this…the easiest (possibly) is to set the font-size of the parent to 0.

    You will have to re-set the font-size for the children though.
