Horizontal scrolling without JavaScript

Question

I'm putting together a horizontally scrolling layout to display nested content (think files within folders within folders ad infinitum). For purposes of graceful degradation, is there any way whatsoever to load the page initially scrolled all the way to the right, without JavaScript? It's easy to scroll it all the way to the bottom by adding <a id="foo"></a> to the end of the page and appeding #foo to the URL, but that doesn't seem to work horizontally.

Yep! Check out this fiddle. You can see that I'm using an anchor to reference an element way on the right of the page (the yellow div), and the browser is scrolling that element into view just as it would scroll downward to bring an element into view that was below the window's edge.
