Non-standard
This feature is non-standard and is not on a standards track. Do not use it on production sites facing the Web: it will not work for every user. There may also be large incompatibilities between implementations and the behavior may change in the future.
Summary

|---|---|
| Applies to | non-replaced block-level elements and non-replaced inline-block elements |
| Inherited | yes |
| Media | interactive |
| Computed value | as specified |
| Animatable | no |

Values
auto- Initial value. Same as
inherit. none- Scrollbars are never displayed, although the element can still be scrolled if the element's content overflows.
scrollbar- "Traditional" scrollbars are displayed if the element's content overflows. "Traditional" scrollbars don't auto-hide and never overlap the element's content. Accordingly, the dimensions of the layout area for the content are reduced by the girth of the scrollbar(s).
-ms-autohiding-scrollbar- Auto-hiding scrollbars are used if the element's content overflows. Auto-hiding scrollbars are displayed during scrolling or shortly after the pointer interacts with the page, and are hidden shortly after scrolling and pointer interaction stops. When they are visible, auto-hiding scrollbars overlap the element's content.
Formal syntax
auto | none | scrollbar | -ms-autohiding-scrollbar
