You can do this with CSS like this:

HTML:

<div class="wrapper">
    <div class="inner">
    </div>
</div>

CSS:

.wrapper{
    width: 400px;
    height: 300px;
}
.inner{
    max-width: 100%;
    overflow-x: hidden;
}

Now your .wrapper div will have overflow: visible; but your .inner div will never overflow because it has a maximum width of 100% of the wrapper div. Note that your wrapper must have an explicitly defined width.

Here is a working jsFiddle
