CSS white-space nowrap not working

问题:

I have a div with several child divs which are floating left. I don't want them to break, so I set them to display:inline-block and white-space:nowrap. Unfortunately nothing happens at all. They just keep breaking.

At the end I want to scroll in x-direction, but when I add overflow-x:scroll; overflow-y:visible it scrolls in y-direction.

.a {
    width: 400px;
    height: 300px;
    white-space: nowrap;
    display: inline-block;
}
.b {
    float: left;
    width: 50px;
    height: 200px;
    display: inline-block;
}

<div class="a">
    <div class="b"></div>
    <div class="b"></div>
    <div class="b"></div>
    <div class="clearfix"></div>
</div>

You can see my complete implementation on JSFiddle

I may not fully understand your question but it seems like the divs/scroll behave if you remove: float: left; from .b and add: overflow:auto; to .a

回答2:

Not sure what you mean, but if you stop floading your b, and give your a overflow:auto it should work

Does this give you what you want? Added overflow scroll.

* {
    margin: 0px;
    padding: 0px;
}
html, body {
    height: 100%;
    background-color: #EEEEEE;
}
.a {
    width: 400px;
    height: 300px;
    white-space: nowrap;
    overflow:scroll;          /* Added this line*/
    background-color: lightcoral;
    -webkit-box-sizing:border-box;
}
.b {
    width: 50px;
    height: 200px;
    margin-top: 50px;
    margin-left: 15px;
    display: inline-block;
    background-color: lightgreen;
    -webkit-box-sizing:border-box;
}
.clearfix {
    float: none;
    clear: both;
}
