The overflow property indicates how the content will be displayed when it exceeds the containing element. Possible values are:
- visible: The entirety of the content is shown, regardless of the height specified for the element.
- hidden: Only the content within the containing element is shown.
- scroll: Displays the vertical and horizontal scroll bar to allow scroll of the content, regardless of whether the content exceeds the containing element.
- auto: If the content is beyond the containing element, a scroll bar is displayed.
