I have an outer div that has a max-height and overflow-y: auto.
Inside it are two divs side by side that may vertically due to the content inside either one of them.
The left div has a grey background and the right div has a white background.
I need both divs to grow vertically, but theyre constrained by the max-height I set on my outer div.
I want the left div and right div to expand vertically but there only be one scroll bar (on the outer div)
Here is the HTML:
<div class="outer"><div class="inner-left"><div>Left Content</div><div>Left Content</div><div>Left Content</div><div>Left Content</div><div>Left Content</div><div>Left Content</div><div>Left Content</div><div>Left Content</div><div>Left Content</div><div>Left Content</div><div>Left Content</div></div><div class="inner-right"> Right Content</div></div>
Here is the CSS:
.outer { display: flex; overflow-y: auto; max-height: 100px; border: 1px solid black; padding: 16px;}.inner-left { background-color: grey; width: 50%;}.inner-right { background-color: white; width: 50%;}

As you can see, the grey background of the left div doesn't go down to the bottom of the outer div
