How can I make an HTML TD that's set to overflow:hidden scroll smoothly with the click of a button through Javascript?

I have an HTML TD with overflow set to hidden. It's width is 850px and height is 567px. The content inside should measure 567px high and 1700px wide. I want the user to be able to click a JavaScript button that scrolls the next table that's inside the TD into view. How can I do this? I've tried document.getElementById("tilesDisplay").scrollBy(10,0) but that didn't work.

<tr>
      <td style="margin:0px; padding:0px; width:100%;" cellpadding="0px" cellspacing="0px">
          <table style="margin:0px; padding:0px; width:100%; table-layout:fixed; overflow:hidden; white-space: nowrap;" cellpadding="0px" cellspacing="0px">
              <tr>
                  <td style="background-color:#000000; vertical-align:middle; text-align:left;" onmouseover="arrow(this,1,'left');" onmouseout="arrow(this,2,'left');" onclick="ChangePortfolioImage('left');">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<img src="../images/general/arrow-left.png" style="width:25px; cursor:pointer;" /></td>
                  <td id="tilesDisplay" style="background-color:#000000; width:850px; height:567px; overflow:hidden; border:solid 1px #758264;">

I think the easiest way would be to use a container div positioned relatively and offset the position of the container div on the button click event.

<table>
     <tr> <td>
          <div id="table-container"> <table class="subtable"> .... </table></div>
     </td> </tr>
</table>

cont = document.getElementById('table-container');
offset = 850; // Or whatever the width of the subtable

 <input onClick = "cont.style.left = cont.style.left - offset;">
