How To Create a Horizontal Scrollable Menu

Step 1) Add HTML:

Example

<div class="scrollmenu">
<a href="#home">Home</a>
<a href="#news">News</a>
<a href="#contact">Contact</a>
<a href="#about">About</a>
...
</div>

Step 2) Add CSS:

The trick to make the navbar scrollable is by using overflow:auto and white-space: nowrap:

Example

div.scrollmenu {
  background-color: #333;
overflow: auto;
white-space: nowrap;
}

div.scrollmenu a {
  display: inline-block;
  color: white;
  text-align: center;
  padding: 14px;
  text-decoration: none;
}

div.scrollmenu a:hover {
  background-color: #777;
}
