What browsers support `overflow-y`?

From what I understand, overflow-y is a CSS3 selector. But at http://www.findmebyip.com/litmus, it doesn't have that selector shown, show I don't know what browsers support it.

First, are overflow-y and overflow-x actually CSS3 selectors?

Second, what browsers support them?

The overflow-y and overflow-x are not CSS3-exclusive properties.

They are (partially) supported in Internet Explorer 6.x+, Firefox 1.5+, recent versions of Safari, the beta of Opera 9.5, and (of course) Google Chrome.

No, overflow-x and y are not CSS3 selectors. They are simply properties, similar to overflow but with direction restrictions.

From http://reference.sitepoint.com/css/overflow

The CSS3 overflow-x and overflow-y properties are partially supported in Internet Explorer for windows versions 5 and 6 and fully supported in Internet Explorer versions 7 & 8. Safari 3+, Chrome 2+, Firefox 2+ and Opera 9.5+ all support these properties.
