absolute positioned 2 column child inside an absolute parent

[hamsterjae]

Hello :)

I have an absolute positioned parent and inside are 2 columns who are also absolutely positioned :)

and i needed to push down the left column(circle) because its supposed to show only 3/4 of the circle (overflow:hidden was used for the wrapper parent, also that’s why i used absolute positioning instead of float) but it meant declaring a height for the main container. is there a way not to do this so that it will follow whatever content is inside it?

it kinda look like this: (grabbed from google images) http://www.consumerpressuregroup.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/Summer-static-banner.jpg
– but the circle is on the left side

Thanx in advance :)

Sometimes the thing to do is just use an image….sounds like you’re working very hard to achieve a specific effect that could be done much easier.

Do you have an image of what your item is supposed to look like…not the example you gave.?

Not sure why you need columns here.

Seems to me a very simple layout.
