<div style="float:left; width:50%;">
    div 1
    <div style="position:absolute; width:105%">nested element</div>
</div>
<div style="float:left; width:50%;">
    div 2
</div

If an element exceeds the width of its floated parent element, the next element is pushed down unless I apply overflow:hidden on both floated elements, which defeats the purpose because I DO NOT want to hide the overflowing content. Is there any fix for it?
