I've put the colours in so that you can see the area that the divs cover.

HTML excerpt:
<div id="left">Content</div>
<div id="right">Content</div>

Stylesheet except:

body {
	background-color: red;
}

#left {
	position: absolute;
	top: 0;
	left: 0;
	width: 180px;
	background-color: white;
	color: black;
}

#right {
	position: absolute;
	top: 0;
	left: 185px;
	right: 0;
	background-color: black;
	color: white;
}
