Unless something changed very recently overflow-x/y has never worked for me in Safari. That sort of seems like the missing piece to me. IE & Firefox can be worked with, but Safari only seems to support overflow:auto; as far as I've seen.
Does anyone know a way to force Safari to emulate overflow-x? I've always had to resort to some goofiness with display:inline; and white- space:nowrap; It'd be nice to at least have control over the two default installed browsers (Safari & IE) and the top 3rd party browser.
