Mouse click and drag Instead of a horizontal scrollbar (to view the full contents of the child Div)

Question

I need a mouse click and drag instead of a horizontal scrollbar.

When I click and drag the child div, which should move left / right relative to the direction of the drag.

Any solution with css or jquery / JS

My css code:

.parent{width:300px; border:5px sold red; overflow:hihdden; float:left;} .child{ width:1000px; float:left; font-size:15px; font-family:arial; padding:10px;}

You can use the .draggable () function from the jquery user interface. Here is a link to sample i created based on your code. Updated code http://jsfiddle.net/3mh2b7rk/4/

 jQuery("#child").draggable({ cursor: "move", containment: "parent", stop: function() { if(jQuery("#child").position().left < 1) jQuery("#child").css("left", "720px"); } }); 

 .parent{width:300px; border:5px solid red; overflow:hidden; left:20px} .child-container{width:1730px;left:-710px;position:relative;} #child{ width:1000px; float:left; font-size:15px; font-family:arial; padding:10px 5px 10px 0;left:720px; border-right:4px solid red} .clear {clear:both;}
