Description Liam R E Quin 2010-02-01 22:56:17 UTC 
Should other values of "overflow" property be allowed for the
"table-overflow" property, e.g. "visible", "hidden", "scroll", and
"error-if-overflow"?

[taken from an open issue in the draft]
Comment 1 Edward Jiang 2010-03-31 17:57:28 UTC 
Recommend to support following value for "table-overflow" property:

hidden
======

When the table width is beyond parent area's width, the overflowed part is hidden


scroll
======

On some rendering agents that target XSL:FO output to browser or other media that supports scrolling, if the table width is beyond the parent area's width, a Horizontal scroll bar is provided underneath the table to support horizontal scrolling.
For other rendering agents that target for printing, this value will be ignored and the agents will treat property as set to be "auto" and use the default behavior.
