title: How to make flex-end work in IE11
body: <p>I tried to make <code>justify-content: flex-end;</code> work, for overflowing-hidden DIV content, in IE11, without success.</p>
  
  <p>After trying several combinations I created a minimal snippet which works in Chrome but not in IE11:</p>
  
  <p><div class="snippet" data-lang="js" data-hide="false" data-console="false" data-babel="false">
  <div class="snippet-code">
  <pre class="snippet-code-css lang-css prettyprint-override"><code>.token-container {
    width: 200px;
    white-space: nowrap;
    overflow: hidden;
    padding: 5px;
    box-shadow: 1px 1px 2px 1px silver inset;
  
    display: flex;
    flex-direction: row;
    justify-content: flex-end;
    //align-content: flex-end;
  }
  .token {
    display: inline-block;
    border: 1px solid silver;
    margin: 1px 3px 0 0;
    border-radius: 4px;
    height: 19px;
    padding: 0 3px;
  }</code></pre>
  <pre class="snippet-code-html lang-html prettyprint-override"><code>&lt;div class="token-container"&gt;
    &lt;div class="token"&gt;
      &lt;span class="token-text"&gt;t-bone&lt;/span&gt;
    &lt;/div&gt;
    &lt;div class="token"&gt;&lt;span class="token-text"&gt;hamburger&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
    &lt;div class="token"&gt;&lt;span class="token-text"&gt;pancetta&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
    &lt;div class="token"&gt;&lt;span class="token-text"&gt;leberkäs&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
    &lt;div class="token"&gt;&lt;span class="token-text"&gt;bacon&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  &lt;/div&gt;</code></pre>
  </div>
  </div>
  </p>
  
  <p>Here's the same snippet in CodePen: <a href="http://codepen.io/anon/pen/bVgOYJ" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://codepen.io/anon/pen/bVgOYJ</a></p>
  
  <p>I would expect the 'bacon' item to be aligned with the right end of the box; instead the 't-bone' is aligned left.</p>
  
  <p>Please point out any errors, perhaps in my expectations for Internet Explorer.</p>

  <p><strong>UPDATE: Added my own alternative solution</strong></p>
  
  <p>Leveraging a <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/a/9685453/2795627">response to another SO question</a>, I was able to do it--without using flexbox.</p>

  <p>So, thanks @AaronSieb, I guess.</p>
