How to get all images(overlapping allowed) in one line using css?

Question

I have a few images(3) which should be displayed in one line and whose combined width is MORE than the page width. But i anyway want them be overlapping, hence the page width doesn't matter. But for some reason only 2 images are coming in one line and third in the next. How do i sort this out. They work perfectly if i make .imageContainer as position:abolute and give left:--px values to each of the id. But that would be difficult to maintain and align. Also they align up properly if i reduce the width of each image, but i don't want to do that :( . Please Help.

UPDATE white-space:nowrap; placed in allImagesContainer has solved this problem, but only in chrome. The problem persists in FF and IE.

Here's the code:

<div class="allImagesContainer">
<div class="imageContainer" id="firstImage">
    <img  src="images/android1.png"/>
    <div class="innerText"></div>
</div>

<div class="imageContainer" id="biggerImage" >
    <img src="images/android2.png"/>
    <div class="innerText"></div>
</div>

<div class="imageContainer" id="lastImage">
    <img src="images/android3.png"/>
    <div class="innerText"></div>
</div>
</div>

And here's the styling:

.allImagesContainer {
position: relative;
top: 50px;
width: 80%;
height: 500px;
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
display: table ;
}

.imageContainer{
position: relative;
display: inline-block;
}

#firstImage{
z-index: 1;
}

#biggerImage{
position: relative;
left: -50px;
z-index: 2;
}

#lastImage{
position: relative;
left: -40px;
z-index: 1;
}

Answer 1

white-space:nowrap; is what you're looking for, placed in allImagesContainer

See a DEMO

Answer 2

If you don't want line breaks, you can use this css on allImagesContainer

.allImagesContainer
{
  white-space:nowrap;
}

Your can remove the position: absolute and relative on all the elements but keep the display:inline-block
