Make sure that your list doesn't inherit unwanted styles from your css, If I'm not mistaken you want something like this: http://jsfiddle.net/h3gSe/1/

<div>
<ul>
    <li>1</li>
    <li>2</li>
    <li>3</li>
    <li>4</li>
    <li>5</li>
    <li>6</li>
    <li>7</li>
    <li>8</li>
    <li>9</li>
    <li>10</li>
    <li>11</li>
    <li>12</li>    
</ul>
</div>    

css:

div{
    border:1px solid red;
    width:100%;
    height:100px;
    overflow:auto;
}
ul {
    margin:0px;
    padding:0px;
}
ul li {
    list-style:none;
    display:block;
    border:1px solid #2e2e2e;
    background:#f9f9f9;
}
