CSS nowrap for other than text elements?

Question

Is there a way to avoid wrapping of a div's content when the content is not just text e.g. several buttons?

Answer 1

white-space:nowrap; should do the trick.

#foo {
  white-space:nowrap;
  width: 100px;
}

<div id="foo">
  <input type="button" value="hello"/>
  <input type="button" value="hello"/>
  <input type="button" value="hello"/>
  <input type="button" value="hello"/>
  <input type="button" value="hello"/>
  <input type="button" value="hello"/>
  <input type="button" value="hello"/>
</div>

You can set both these properties in CSS:

white-space:nowrap; and max-width:something;

Answer 3

You can declare static positions for the other contents using

position:absolute;
