Menu
I have a div that contains a ul and in each li there is a picture. I have floated the pictures left to get them to line up in a straight line however once it reaches the end of the div, it wraps. I would like the pictures to continue on to the right, hidden, so that I am able to create a carousel. My code is below.
The HTML
<div id="container">
<div class="lfbtn"></div>
<ul id="image_container">
<li class="the_image">
<img src="" />
</li>
</ul>
<div class="rtbtn"></div>
</div>
The CSS
#container {
width: 900px;
height: 150px;
margin: 10px auto;
}
#image_container {
position: relative;
left: 50px;
list-style-type: none;
width: 700px;
height: 110px;
overflow: hidden;
}
#image_container li {
display: inline-block;
padding: 7px 5px 7px 5px;
float: left;
}
.lfbtn {
background-image: url(../../img/left.gif);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
margin: 10px;
position: relative;
float: left;
top: -12px;
left: 50px;
height: 90px;
width: 25px;
}
.rtbtn {
background-image: url(../../img/right.gif);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
height: 90px;
width: 25px;
margin: 10px;
position: relative;
top: -101px;
left: 795px;
}
Thanks in advance!

Here's an working SSCCE with the minimum required styles to get it to work:
<!doctype html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<title>SO question 2472979</title>
<style>
#images {
width: 700px;
height: 100px;
overflow: hidden;
white-space: nowrap;
}
#images li {
list-style-type: none;
display: inline;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div id="images">
<ul>
<li><img src="http://sstatic.net/so/img/logo.png" width="250" height="61"></li>
<li><img src="http://sstatic.net/so/img/logo.png" width="250" height="61"></li>
<li><img src="http://sstatic.net/so/img/logo.png" width="250" height="61"></li>
</ul>
</div>
</body>
</html>
You see, the key is white-space: nowrap;. If you want to make it a full blown carousel, just replace overflow: hidden; by overflow-x: scroll; and overflow-y: hidden;.
