Solution 1

The problem is because the inner div width(96 px) is greater than the outer one(50px).

You can do either of the below things.

1. Increase the width of outer div.
2. Make overflow auto of outer div.

Hello,

You need to set position: relative for inner div :

< div id="inner" style="height: 100px; position: relative; width: 96px;" >
