Is it possible to expand a container's width to fit its content?
For example, if I have a page where the content is wider than the
width available at the browser's current size, which means the
horizontal scrollbar appear, I want the container to expand to fit
the width of the content instead of having the content sticking out
the side (because that makes the design of the page look poor when
the user scrolls horizontally).
Thanks,
Stephen
Hey Stevio,
Without seeing a real example of what you are trying to achieve, it
sounds like setting your container to a percentage width should do
the job. Eg: #container { width: 100%; }
It will then expand and contract to the width of the browser window
(or the width of a parent element if this parent has a width
specified). Content will wrap inside this container as needed.
