Give this page you are working with an ID, and give this ID the overflow:hidden. That way other pages can still have overflow in their body. See DEMO

    body{
        width:100%, 
        overflow: hidden;
    }

    div.scrollWrapper{
        height:250px;
        overflow:scroll;
    }
    div.scrollWrapper table{
        width:100%;
    }

My apologies, I made a typo. I also re-edited the demo a little better to show your desired effect
