The first one force the browser to scroll. The second one do it automatically if it needed. https://code.sololearn.com/WI2WU3Zs7m3E/?ref=app

overflow:auto is added and only shown when the amount of content overflows a <div> box for example. overflow:scroll, in short terms, will always give a scrollbar no matter what the amount of content is. edit: basically @Maz's answer. :P !
