Horizontal scrolling problem in browser (Hidden overflow)

Just gave my .02 over in that thread, but I’ve included my response below for anyone who stumbles upon this thread:

Removing horizontal scrollbar

Just swinging by here after the ping in the other horizontal scrolling thread. I wasn’t able to completely remove the horizontal scrollbar as there are a number of problem elements, but it looks to me like it’s your use of VW units for the width of your elements as opposed to %. Make sure that you’re using width/max-width: 100% on your full-width elements as VW units don’t take into account the scrollbar. If you clear out all of those it should remove any horizontal overflow
