How to stop overflow x up and down scroll? - html

Question

I am trying to create a netflix type scroll bar but the problem is that my images can scroll up and down instead of side to side. Like this.
look at bottom
I want it to go side to side
here is my css snippet
.movies {
background-color: lightblue;
border: 1px solid black;
background-color: lightblue;
border: 1px solid black;
height: 15rem;
width: 100%;
overflow-x: scroll;
}
.sinmovie {
height: 10rem;
width: 15rem;
}
.movies-div {
position: absolute;
margin-top: 45rem;
height: 3rem;
}
here is my html
<div class="movies-div">
<h1 class="movies-heading">Movies preview</h1>
<div class="movies">
<img class="sinmovie" src="./movies/large-movie1.jpg" alt="">
<img class="sinmovie" src="/movies/large-movie2.jpg" alt="">
<img class="sinmovie" src="/movies/large-movie3.jpg" alt="">
<img class="sinmovie" src="/movies/large-movie5.jpg" alt="">
<img class="sinmovie" src="/movies/large-movie6.jpg" alt="">

the suggested addition of display flex to .movies creates this

Answer 1

you can use scroll-snap:
<style>
.movies {
width: 600px;
display: flex;
overflow-x: auto;
scroll-snap-type: x mandatory;
}
.movies > div {
width: 200px;
flex-shrink: 0;
box-sizing: border-box;
padding: 10px;
scroll-snap-align: start;
}
.movies > div img {
width: 100%;
}
</style>
<div class="movies-div">
<h1 class="movies-heading">Movies preview</h1>
<div class="movies">
