title: Horizontal timeline in pure css
body: <p>I'm trying to make a timeline in pure CSS however I seem to be running into some problems.</p>
  
  <p>When I try to set the timeline div as overflow-x: scroll it still scrolls on the y access.</p>
  
  <p>This is what I've got: </p>
  
  <p><div class="snippet" data-lang="js" data-hide="false" data-console="true" data-babel="false">
  <div class="snippet-code">
  <pre class="snippet-code-css lang-css prettyprint-override"><code>#timeline {
    height: 500px;
    width: auto;
    margin: 0;
    background: red;
  }
  
  .event {
    height: 500px;
  }
  
  .founded {
    width: 400px;
    float: left;
    background: blue;
  }
  
  .grant {
    width: 800px;
    background: yellow;
  }</code></pre>
  <pre class="snippet-code-html lang-html prettyprint-override"><code>&lt;ol id="timeline"&gt;
    &lt;li class="event founded"&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li class="event grant"&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;/ol&gt;</code></pre>
  </div>
  </div>
  </p>
  
  <p>I just want each additional entry to follow the previous one and for it all be scroll-able horizontally. If anyone could point me in the right direction that would be amazing. </p>
  
  <p>Thanks.</p>
