rovf Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 This is about the overflow-x and overflow-y properties, which are explained here: http://www.w3schools.com/cssref/css3_pr_overflow-y.asp I thought I would understand the explanations, but when I used the "try it" editor, setting the overflow-y property in the example provided, to either 'scroll' or 'visible', produce both the same effect: A vertical scrollbar is shown. From the explanation, I expected to see a scrollbar in the example when overflow-y is set to scroll, but not when it is set to visible I tried this on fairly new versions of Chrome, Firefox, Opera, and on IE11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ingolme Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 It seems that overflow-x:visible won't work if the overflow-y property is set to hidden and vice versa. If you set them both to visible then it will work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
