--- layout: page title: Tables --- Due to the widespread use of tables across third-party widgets like calendars and date pickers, we've designed our tables to be **opt-in**. Just add the base class `.table` to any ``. ## Basic example {% example html %}
# First Name Last Name Username
1 Mark Otto @mdo
2 Jacob Thornton @fat
3 Larry the Bird @twitter
{% endexample %} ## Inverse table {% example html %}
# First Name Last Name Username
1 Mark Otto @mdo
2 Jacob Thornton @fat
3 Larry the Bird @twitter
{% endexample %} ## Table head options Use one of two modifier classes to make ``s appear light or dark gray. {% example html %}
# First Name Last Name Username
1 Mark Otto @mdo
2 Jacob Thornton @fat
3 Larry the Bird @twitter
# First Name Last Name Username
1 Mark Otto @mdo
2 Jacob Thornton @fat
3 Larry the Bird @twitter
{% endexample %} ## Striped rows Use `.table-striped` to add zebra-striping to any table row within the ``. {% example html %}
# First Name Last Name Username
1 Mark Otto @mdo
2 Jacob Thornton @fat
3 Larry the Bird @twitter
{% endexample %} ## Bordered table Add `.table-bordered` for borders on all sides of the table and cells. {% example html %}
# First Name Last Name Username
1 Mark Otto @mdo
2 Mark Otto @TwBootstrap
3 Jacob Thornton @fat
4 Larry the Bird @twitter
{% endexample %} ## Hoverable rows Add `.table-hover` to enable a hover state on table rows within a ``. {% example html %}
# First Name Last Name Username
1 Mark Otto @mdo
2 Jacob Thornton @fat
3 Larry the Bird @twitter
{% endexample %} ## Small table Add `.table-sm` to make tables more compact by cutting cell padding in half. {% example html %}
# First Name Last Name Username
1 Mark Otto @mdo
2 Jacob Thornton @fat
3 Larry the Bird @twitter
{% endexample %} ## Contextual classes Use contextual classes to color table rows or individual cells.

{% highlight html %} ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... {% endhighlight %} ## Responsive tables 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.

Firefox and fieldsets

Firefox has some awkward fieldset styling involving width that interferes with the responsive table. This cannot be overriden without a Firefox-specific hack that we don't provide in Bootstrap:

{% highlight css %} @-moz-document url-prefix() { fieldset { display: table-cell; } } {% endhighlight %}
