add a display: inline-b
div { overflow: hidden; display:inline-block; }
Question
I want the user to select text (html) inside a div. However doing that will show the selection background in the browser also outside the div.
I can prevent that with (see http://jsfiddle.net/lborgman/aWbgT/)
div { overflow: hidden; }
Is that the way to do it? Or, is there a better way?
Solution
OTHER TIPS
There is a typo in the CSS property :
xoverflow: hidden;
instead of
overflow-x: hidden;
