Hi,

In my website header, I have a div called "navigation", which should be on the right and has an automatic width. I also have another div called "icon", which should be on the left and should fill up the remaining width of "header". Please see it here: http://codepen.io/Rixterz/pen/KAdsr[^]

Help!

Please just use my example because yours is completely different.

That still doesn't make the first div fill the remaining space. Try the codepen example in the question using display:inline;
float:left; in both.
