CSS Validation Help

.overflow {
width:770px;
padding-bottom:20px;
overflow:auto;
overflow-x:auto;
overflow-y:hidden;
}

I just want to use overflow horizontally. Above code works like charm but since overflow-x:auto; & overflow-y:hidden; isn't a valid sintax so my site's CSS isn't validated. So I removed overflow-x:auto; & overflow-y:hidden; & then the overflow works fine on Opera & Firefox. But on IE the overflow works vertically as well as horizontally. Is there any CSS code (validated) that I can use only horizontally overflow?

CSS Validator

Ah ok . I removed these two lines & its working fine on FF & Opera. Lets IE do his job & we do ours . Now a days who use IE?

So you removed css that makes style look correctly in one browser only because it wasn't validating? Sigh. Doesn't matter if it validates or not, as long as code is correct. Other browsers don't support that css and they will ignore it, so it won't cause any problems at all.

Usability should be your main concern, not validation. Valid css is nice to have, but not if it causes problems to some users.
