How To Put Multiple Divs Side By Side And Not Go To The Next Line

Fiddle: https://jsfiddle.net/29xxju45/ CSS: * { padding: 0; margin: 0; } body { padding: 2%; background: #0000CC; color: #FFF !important; } .minhold { z-index: 10

Solution 1:

Create a container class and use the calc attribute on width...for example:

CSS:

.container {
  width: calc(100% / 4);
  height: 150px;
  padding: 0;
  margin: 0;
  float: left;
}

HTML:

<divclass="minhold"><divclass="container"style="background: red;"></div><divclass="container"style="background: blue;"></div><divclass="container"style="background: green;"></div><divclass="container"style="background: pink;"></div></div>

DEMO

In a nutshell, each container calculates it's parent width and gets divided by 4 (since you have 4 containers). If you want more containers, simply put 5 or more in place of 4.

Solution 2:

you have to define height and set overflow:auto;

Solution 3:

I think you can use FlexModel.

.minhold {
    display: flex;
    flex-flow: row nowrap;
    z-index: 10;
    background-color: #ffffff;
    padding: 0!important;
    border-radius: 4px;
    -moz-border-radius: 4px;
    border: 1px solid #ddd;
    margin-top: 6px;
    margin-left: 0.4%;
    -webkit-box-shadow: 06px12pxrgba(0,0,0,.175);
    box-shadow: 06px12pxrgba(0,0,0,.175);
    -moz-box-shadow: 06px12pxrgba(0,0,0,.175);
    background-clip: padding-box;
    opacity: 0.97;
    filter: alpha(opacity=97);
    width: 99%;
    float: left;
}
.dmaxh {
    overflow: hidden;
    width: 31%;
    float: left;
    margin: 01%10px1%;
}
.main-content {
    position: relative;
    z-index: 10;
    background: rgb(71, 194, 243);
    padding: 5px5px10px5px;
    border-radius: 15px;
    border-top-left-radius: 0;
}

.box {
  width: 50%;
  height: 150px;
  background: #990000;
  overflow: hidden;
}

<divstyle="overflow: hidden; width: 100%; margin: -1.6rem 0 0 0;"><divclass="main-content"><divclass="maxh"style="overflow: hidden !important;"><divclass="minhold"><divclass="box"style="background: #009900;">
    BOX 1
  </div><divclass="box"style="background: #990000;">
    BOX 2
  </div><divclass="box"style="background: #000099;">
    BOX 3
  </div><divclass="box"style="background: #999;">
    BOX 4
  </div></div></div></div></div>

Solution 4:

In your HTML, you're hard coding the widths into each div, and the math doesn't check out. If you were to apply a block class to each div and apply a width: 25% you would fit four blocks side by side.
