CSS Overflow scroll only appears when needed [duplicate]

Question

Hey I have just added the following code to one of my span:

overflow-y : scroll;
height: 200px;

This is kind of working fine. The only issue is that the scroll bar does appear all the time even when you can't click on it. Isn't there a way to hide it if it is inactive ?

Thanks
