I have been trying to make two divs float side by side or basically the shopping cart and the items (namely jcart and cartbox) but cant seem to get it. Here is the demo: link
i tried change float:right; on the cartbox css but that would only move the shopping cart to the right and if I remove the float on the cartbox css.. The cart and the items align side by side but for some reason cart appears to be really small and the "add to cart" button doesn't appear to click. Any help will be appreciated!
You need to add display: inline-block on the elements you wish to align side by side, as div elements have a default style of display: block, meaning they will stack vertically instead of horizontally (not the behaviour you want).
From the looks of it; the shopping cart box is too wide to fit side by side in the content container as well. Make the div with the id centre wider (possibly to 1000px instead of 960px), and coupled with the addition of changing the display property, that should do it.
