Making Tabs with CSS and Javascript work

I have tried to make the snippet work somewhat. I'm just starting out with this and I have only currently designed it for my phone. You can see the problem by clicking on projects and today.

I have a div(#data-container) which consists of two divs(.project, .today) and I want those two divs to be side by side acting like tabs. So, that when I click on their respective button it swipes and shows the respective div. I've got it working but with 2 problems.

How they work - The #data-container has white-space: nowrap(child divs won't wrap and stay side by side and the sliding will work) and it's child div's(.project and .today) are set to width: 100% and inline-block.

Problems with this

  1. The data-container needs to be able to scroll vertically and can wrap text around the currently selected div but white-space: nowrap makes the text overflow. I have tried word-wrap: break-word, it doesn't work. I can also make it work by setting the display: hidden but I want the divs to swipe.

  2. I don't understand why this problem is happening. When I set the #data-container to overflow-y: scroll, it makes the divs horizontally scroll able which breaks the whole system.

I need a way to make the data-container only vertically scroll able and to wrap text.

CSS

.container {
  position: relative; }

.below {
  z-index: 0;
  box-shadow: 0;
  background-color: white;
  color: black; }

.above {
  z-index: 1;
  box-shadow: 2px 2px 2px 1px #b0b0b0;
  background-color: #26A69A;
  color: white; }

#data-container {
  position: relative;
  height: 93%;
  overflow-y: scroll;
  white-space: nowrap;
  width: 100%;
  z-index: 0; }

.navbar {
  text-align: center;
  font-size: 26px;
  height: 7%;
  min-height: 50px; }

.navbar-inside-one, .navbar-inside-two {
  position: relative;
  display: inline-block;
  width: 50%;
  height: 100%;
  padding: 10px 10px 10px 10px; }

.project, .today {
  display: inline-block;
  position: relative;
  width: 100%;
  word-wrap: break-all;
  font-size: 28px;
  line-height: 1.63em; }

Animating with Javascript

    $('.navbar-inside-two').click(function() {
        $(".project, .today").animate({left: "-" + $("#data-container").width()}, 200);
        $(".navbar-inside-one").removeClass('below').addClass('above');
        $(this).removeClass('above').addClass('below');
    });

    $('.navbar-inside-one').click(function() {
        $(".project, .today").animate({left: "0"}, 200);
        $(".navbar-inside-two").removeClass('below').addClass('above');
        $(this).removeClass('above').addClass('below');
    });


$(document).ready(function() {

  //Height function for container and sidebar
  (function() {
    $(".container, .sidebar").height($("#maindiv").height() - $('header').height());
    $(".sidebar").css('top', 49); //TO BE MADE AGAIN
  })();

  $('span').click(function() {
    var sidebar = $('.sidebar').css('left').replace(/([a-z])\w+/g, '');
    if (sidebar < 0) {
      $('.sidebar').animate({
        'left': '0px'
      }, 200);
      $('.container').animate({
        'left': '150px'
      }, 200)
    } else {
      $('.sidebar').animate({
        'left': '-150px'
      }, 200);
      $('.container').animate({
        'left': '0px'
      }, 200)
    }
  });

  $('.navbar-inside-two').click(function() {
    $(".project, .today").animate({
      left: "-" + $("#data-container").width()
    }, 200);
    $(".navbar-inside-one").removeClass('below').addClass('above');
    $(this).removeClass('above').addClass('below');
  });

  $('.navbar-inside-one').click(function() {
    $(".project, .today").animate({
      left: "0"
    }, 200);
    $(".navbar-inside-two").removeClass('below').addClass('above');

There is a neat and simple way of doing this using flex. Here is my suggestion:

#data-container {
    display: flex;
}

.project, .today {
    display: flex;
    min-width: 100%;
    white-space: normal;
}

You get vertical scroll as well when the content of any div exceeds the height.

word-wrap: break-word does't work with white-space: nowrap, so you actually need to target .project children paragraph.

So just removed below CSS From .project.

word-wrap: break-all;

And add below CSS in your code

.project p {
   white-space: normal;
}

I also done above changes in below code snippet, i hope it'll help you out. Thanks

$(document).ready(function() {

  //Height function for container and sidebar
  (function() {
    $(".container, .sidebar").height($("#maindiv").height() - $('header').height());
    $(".sidebar").css('top', 49); //TO BE MADE AGAIN
  })();

  $('span').click(function() {
    var sidebar = $('.sidebar').css('left').replace(/([a-z])\w+/g, '');
    if (sidebar < 0) {
      $('.sidebar').animate({
        'left': '0px'
      }, 200);
      $('.container').animate({
        'left': '150px'
      }, 200)
    } else {
      $('.sidebar').animate({
        'left': '-150px'
      }, 200);
      $('.container').animate({
        'left': '0px'
      }, 200)
    }
  });

  $('.navbar-inside-two').click(function() {
    $(".project, .today").animate({
      left: "-" + $("#data-container").width()
    }, 200);
    $(".navbar-inside-one").removeClass('below').addClass('above');
    $(this).removeClass('above').addClass('below');
  });

  $('.navbar-inside-one').click(function() {
    $(".project, .today").animate({
      left: "0"
    }, 200);
    $(".navbar-inside-two").removeClass('below').addClass('above');
    $(this).removeClass('above').addClass('below');
  });
});
