Horizontally scrollable box on page

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
May 27.2008

I apologise in advance, since I’m so ignorant that I’m not even sure how to frame my question.

I have a blog, the horizontal width of which is fixed.

I can create entries using HTML code.

I’d like to put into a blog entry a box with a horizontal scroll bar and then put into the box a collection of images side by side. Someone could look through the images by using the horizontal scrollbar.

I thought I’d seen an example of this, but now can’t find it again.

Is it indeed possible?

If so, could someone give me a hint as to where to find information about doing it or even a hint as to the technical name applied to such a thing?

Thanks for reading this,

Leslie

@LeeUMay 27.2008 — I think you're looking for something like this, is that right? He has others on the site also.

@lesliek19authorMay 27.2008 — Thanks very much for replying LeeU.

The blogging software I use is called tumblr.

I don't know whether you can use CSS with a tumblr post. However, if you can, the truth is that I just wouldn't know how and both versions of the gallery to which you directed me used CSS.

I was hoping for something that would just use HTML or HTML plus Javascript.

If what I hope to do is even doable in the babyish way I want and you know of any models for that, I'd be very grateful to hear.

Thanks again,

Leslie

@LeeUMay 28.2008 — Ah, gotcha. Well, you might try the image scripts over at JavaScript Source.

If that doesn't work, I could always move this topic to the Blog forum and you could see if they could help.

Success!
