I am looking to make a horizontal layout website but having issues with the display: inline rule acting strangely.

It seems to be tailored towards inline navigational s, which is nice, but it is causing me massive problems.

Here is my code:

<div id="container">

    </div> <!--container-->


#container{

height: 600px; display: inline; }

section{ display: inline; }

article{ height: 600px; width: 300px; display: inline; }

This is what it looks like:

The display:inline completely overwrites the height and width set for the articles in the CSS.

Any ideas?
