HTML scroll image having height as auto?

Is there an alternate way to scroll an image with the height set as auto at all? Because I have an image that does not fully fit into the div container and I don't want to force px in the height attribute:

    <div style="height: auto; width: 150px; overflow: scroll;">
        <img> .....bla bla bla
    </div>

Well you don't have to set the height of the div.

I made you an example with scrolling only the width: http://jsfiddle.net/ah3b20zs/13/

HTML:

<div style="height: auto; width: 150px; overflow-x: scroll;">
    <img src="yourimg" alt="caption" />
</div>

P.S.: I used exact witdh within the <img> because the source image was too big.

If you want to scroll height as well I don't think it's possible without saying from where it should start scrolling(setting height or max-height of the div).

So the question for you is: When do you want it to start scrolling?

use this your height will be auto

<div style="height: 100%; width: 150px; overflow: scroll;">

also you can add max-height to the code like this max-height:200px;
