What to do with content that renders outside the element box with JavaScript?
If the content renders outside the element box, use the overflow property to add a scroll. This will ease visitors in reading the entire content.
Example
You can try to run the following code to learn how to work with overflow property in JavaScript −
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<style>
#box {
width: 450px;
height: 150px;
background-color: orange;
border: 3px solid red;
margin-left: 20px;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<p>Click to use overflow property and set scroll.</p>
<button type="button" onclick="display()">Set Scroll</button>
<div id="box">
<p>This is a div. This is a div. This is a div. This is a div. This is a div.</p>
<p>This is a div. This is a div. This is a div. This is a div. This is a div.</p>
<p>This is a div. This is a div. This is a div. This is a div. This is a div.</p>
<p>This is a div. This is a div. This is a div. This is a div. This is a div.</p>
