Tables
Basic table
For basic styling—light padding and only horizontal dividers—add the base class .table
to any <table>
. It may seem super redundant, but given the widespread use of tables for other plugins like calendars and date pickers, we've opted to isolate our custom table styles.

Striped table
Use .table-striped
to add zebra-striping to any table row within the <tbody>
.
Cross-browser compatibility
Striped tables are styled via the :nth-child
CSS selector, which is not available in Internet Explorer 8.

Conveying meaning to assistive technologies
Using color to add meaning to a table row or individual cell only provides a visual indication, which will not be conveyed to users of assistive technologies – such as screen readers. Ensure that information denoted by the color is either obvious from the content itself (the visible text in the relevant table row/cell), or is included through alternative means, such as additional text hidden with the .sr-only
class.

Responsive table
Create responsive tables by wrapping any .table
in .table-responsive
to make them scroll horizontally on small devices (under 768px). When viewing on anything larger than 768px wide, you will not see any difference in these tables.
Vertical clipping/truncation
Responsive tables make use of overflow-y: hidden
, which clips off any content that goes beyond the bottom or top edges of the table. In particular, this can clip off dropdown menus and other third-party widgets.
Swipe to scroll through table columns.
