To prevent the grid in the Statistics section from overflowing its parent container in Webflow, you can follow these steps:

  1. Select the parent container that holds the grid. This could be a section or a div element.
  2. In the Styles panel, make sure the parent container has a set height or max-height value. This will set a limit for the height of the container.
  3. Set the parent container's position property to relative. This allows any child elements to be positioned within the boundaries of the parent container.
  4. Ensure that the overflow property of the parent container is set to hidden. This will prevent any overflow content from being visible outside the container.
  5. Inside the parent container, select the grid element.
  6. Set the grid's position property to absolute. This allows you to position the grid within the boundaries of the parent container.
  7. Adjust the width and height of the grid as needed to fit within the parent container without overflowing.

Following these steps will help you prevent the grid in the Statistics section from overflowing its parent container in Webflow.

Example:

<section class="parent-container">  <div class="grid">    <!-- Grid content goes here -->  </div></section>

CSS Styles:

.parent-container {  position: relative;  height: 400px; /* Set a fixed height or max-height*/  overflow: hidden;}.grid {  position: absolute;  /* Set width and height as needed */}

It's important to note that these steps provide a general guideline for preventing grid overflow. The specific implementation may vary depending on your layout and design requirements. Be sure to customize the styles based on your specific needs.
