Try the browser support yourself

All major browsers support the overflow property.

Note: The property value "Inherit" is not supported by any version of Internet Explorer (including IE8). Definition and Usage

The Overflow property specifies what happens when the content overflows the element box. Description

This property defines how the content of the overflow element's content area will be handled. If the value is scroll, the user agent provides a scrolling mechanism, whether or not it is required. Therefore, it is possible that scroll bars appear even if all the contents of the element box can be dropped.

Default value:	Visible
Inheritance:	No
Version:	CSS2
JavaScript Syntax:	object.style.overflow= "Scroll"

Possible values

value	Description
Visible	The default value. The content is not trimmed and is rendered outside the element box.
Hidden	The content is trimmed and the rest is not visible.
Scroll	the content is trimmed, but the browser displays scroll bars to see the rest of the content.
Auto	If the content is trimmed, the browser displays scroll bars to see the rest of the content.
Inherit	Specifies that the value of the overflow property should be inherited from the parent element.
