I thought this may be useful, as it is a problem I ran into recently. This is how you place a scrollbar onto a table cell in a html document.
Place this code just the ‘td tag’ of the table cell:
<div style=’height: 200px; overflow: auto;’>
You may want to edit the ‘200px’ to the height you want.
–
Then add this just before the </td> tag:
</div>
Good Luck!





thanks……..that helped me a lot
Thanks a ton…that really helped.
Once you do have the scroll bar (with a Find feature in my case), how to you also add a print button to print the WHOLE table and not only the part that shows on the screen.
I am sorry but I could only point you towards posting a thread on one of the many forums around. Unfortunately I am unfamiliar with what you request.
If you find out a solution, feel free to post it back on here.
Good Luck! Dave
Hi there please could you show me the code for on of the pages where you used this code, cause if I use it, it is not working … thanks
Hello. The page I used this for is unfortunately no longer online. Be sure that you understand your not putting a scroll-bar on the table cell itself. Your putting it inside the divider tags that are inside the table cells. The (overflow: “auto”) code won’t work in table cells, but will in divs.
Best of luck!
