Add a horizontal scrollbar to an HTML table

Is there a way to add a horizontal scrollbar to an HTML table? I actually need it to be scrollable both vertically and horizontally depending on how the table grows but I cannot get either scrollbar to appear.

Solution

  • Did you try CSS overflow property?

    overflow: scroll; /* Scrollbar are always visible */
overflow: auto;   /* Scrollbar is displayed as it's needed */

    UPDATE
    As other users are pointing out, this is not enough to add the scrollbars.
