This controls what happens to your content that breaks outside of its borders.
Auto: if the content proceeds outside its box then that content will be hidden whilst a scroll bar should be visible for users to read the rest of the content
Visible: content is not clipped when it proceeds outside its box
Hidden: overflowing content will be hidden.
Clip: content is clipped when it proceeds outside its box
Scroll: similar to hidden except users will be able to scroll through the hidden content.
Inherit: sets the overflow to the value of its parent element.
Initial: Uses the default value, which is ‘visible’
Revert: Resets to the default value, ignoring changes made by the current style.
Unset: Acts as ;inherit; if the property is inheritable, otherwise actis as 'initial'.
