You should use a div inside of your table cell to create the desired effect. Making a table cell have a scroll bar doesn't always work.
Here's the code and an example:
<div style="overflow: auto; height: 100px; width: 200px;">Put your text...

It is possible to use a spry menu bar as a library item. The trick is as you say including the necessary javascript and css files in the proper location. To do this you would follow these steps:

There are revealTrans and blendTrans meta tags but these only really work in IE.
<meta http-equiv="Page-Enter" content="revealTrans(Duration=1.0,Transition=12)">
Here's a good page describing the function:

However, the transitions really only work in IE.

Yea this is doable. You'll just need to hack the javascript file a bit. Go into the javascript file and look for the block of code that looks like this:
this.addEventListener(listitem, 'mouseout', function(e)
{
if(self.bubbledTextEvent())
{
// ignore bubbled text events
return;
}

It looks as though you don't have the javascript at the bottom of your page that executes the spry menu bar functionality. Here's the code that's missing:
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
var MenuBar1 = new Spry.Widget.MenuBar("MenuBar1", {imgDown:"SpryAssets/SpryMenuBarDownHover.gif", imgRight:"SpryAssets/SpryMenuBarRightHover.gif"});

What you need to do is execute a javascript function that does multiple things. Here's an example of what you need:
function filmchange(rowid){
ds1.setCurrentRow(rowid);
var row = ds1.getCurrentRow();
var myval = row["StarRating"];
var spryrating1 = new Spry.Widget.Rating("spryrating1",{ratingValue:myval});
}
