Divs not scaling up correctly in Opera

[John Fitzgibbon]

Hi,

I have created a navigation bar by creating two divs. One div is
absolutely positioned zero pixels from the top, zero pixels from the
left and 75 per cent from the right. The rest of the document is
contained in a div that is absolutely positioned zero pixels from the
top, 25 per cent from the left and zero pixels from the right.

In Opera 7.54, it is possible to zoom the web page by up to one thousand
per cent or ten times its original size. This causes the text in my web
page to spill out beyond its containing div. Is there any means of
getting each div and the entire web page to expand sufficiently to
contain its contents when the web page is being zoomed in this way? A
scroll bar would have to appear at the bottom of the web page but this
would not be a problem. I have experimented with the width and min-width
attributes of both divs but to no avail.

Any suggestions would be most welcome?

Regards
John
