How do i get a div tag to only show a vertical scrollbar (and not horizontal)?

Question

I have tried several incarnations of the overflow attribute in the div's style. None work for IE!

Really, I am typing into a texbox and using javascript to render the html in div of equal porportions while I type. I use mydiv.innerHTML = txt; to populate the div. But the hortizontal scroll bar keeps appearing.

Answer 1

try with

overflow-x:hidden

Answer 2

it working...........thanks
