CSS3 Display Menu and Products Divs Side to Side

Hi Community,

I am trying to display a menu side to side my product catalog for that I have something like follows:

<section> <nav> <h1>Baby Boy</h1> <ul> <li><a>All</a></li> </ul> <h1>Baby Girl</h1> <ul> <li><a>All</a></li> </ul> </nav> </section> <section> <h1>Product Catalog</h1> <ul> <li><img></li> <li><img></li> <li><img></li> </ul> </section>

So I need my two sections inside my body to stay side to side, may be the menu 30% of the screen and the catalog 70%.

What I try ? I try to put the sections inside a div and give the div a display inline-block and it work, but when I try to give some width to the pictures the inline-block stop working.

You forgot to show the CSS and there's no actual images so it's hard to see your situation.

However, it sounds like CSS grid might be a good solution for you There happens to be a course for it here: CSS Grid Layout, along with several practice workshops.
