Block elements always take up the full available width. What you want to use here is inline-block which are simply inline elements that accepts a height and width.

And for hiding overflow apply overflow:hidden

If you meant to scroll horizontally by mentioning win-8, apply

white-space:nowrap for the container as in this fiddle:
