scrolling

How can I create a element that only scrolls horizontally? If it makes sense, I want the element to act like it is position:fixed when the user scrolls vertically down the page, but act like it's position:static for sideways scrolling.

HTML/CSS solutions preferred, but if it isnt' feasible, JavaScript fixes are fine.
