Objective

I have a main DIV with fixed height and width, and in that I want have lots of small DIV's to float freely. I have more small DIV's than can fit in the main DIV. Then it seems that by default is disappear small DIV's down outside the main DIV. I want them instead to disappear to the right.

I want to trigger a horizontal scrollbar, but no vertical.

Background

I tested this with white-space: nowrap as described at http://www.webmasterworld.com/forum83/8844.htm

And it works perfect if I have only text or images in the main DIV.

Question

But how do I do when the main DIV contains only small DIV's?
