Parent-child height problem
- by Vector
I have a parent div that has position: relative and his child has position: absolute. Such positions is a must. The problem is the parent does not stretch to the height of the child. The question is how to make it stretch to the height of the child?
The mark-up is similar to this:
<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<html>
<head>
<style>
.parent {
position: relative;
border: solid 1px red;
}
.child {
position: absolute;
border: solid 1px red;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div class="parent">
<div class="child">Hello World!</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
