Hide scrollbar while still being able to scroll with mouse/keyboard [duplicate]

How to disable browser or element scrollbar, but allow scrolling with wheel or arrow keys?
I want to know if it is possible to hide the scrollbar, while scrolling is still enabled with mouse/keyboard.
I tried to use CSS: overflow: hidden;
. The effect is scrollbar disabled and scrolling disabled.
For future reference there is also a solution without jQuery - just have the wrapper div style contain overflow:hidden
and use this JavaScript two-liner:
// get the width of the textarea minus scrollbar
var textareaWidth = document.getElementById("textarea").scrollWidth;
// width of our wrapper equals width of the inner part of the textarea
document.getElementById("wrapper").style.width = textareaWidth + "px";
See demo or complete HOWTO.
Update: you can use the same principle to create scrollable div without scrollbar: demo.
There is a jQuery plugin called Scrollable that does what you want.
