ASP.NET

<div style="overflow-y:hidden; overflow-x:scroll; removed:relative; width: 50%;">
<asp:datalist id="DataList1" runat="server" onitemcommand="DataList1_ItemCommand" datakeyfield="" xmlns:asp="#unknown">
            <itemtemplate>
               //your items
            </itemtemplate>
        </asp:datalist>
</div>
