Can I create a square div within a parent div in Webflow, where the square's width is 100% of the parent div and the height matches the width?

Yes, you can definitely create a square div within a parent div in Webflow, where the square's width is 100% of the parent div and the height matches the width. Here's how you can achieve this:

1. Create a parent div:
- Drag and drop a "Div" element onto your canvas in Webflow.
- Set the desired width and height for your parent div using the styling options.

2. Create the square div:
- Inside the parent div, drag and drop another "Div" element.
- Select the square div and go to the Styles panel.
- Set the width of the square div to 100% using the width property.

3. Making the height match the width:
- To make the height of the square div match its width, you'll need to use percentage-based padding.
- Select the square div and go to the Styles panel.
- Click on the "+" icon next to the Padding property to add padding values.
- Set all four padding values (top, right, bottom, left) to the same value using a percentage that creates a square.
For example, if you want a 100px by 100px square, set each padding value to 50%.

By setting the width of the square div to 100% of its parent div and using percentage-based padding, you can ensure that the height of the square div matches its width, resulting in a square shape. You can further customize the appearance of both the parent and square divs by applying additional styles, such as colors, borders, and gradients, as needed.

Remember to preview and test your design in different screen sizes and devices to ensure that the square div remains responsive and maintains the desired proportions.
