Overview

Due to the widespread use of <table> elements across third-party widgets like calendars and date pickers, Bootstrap's tables are opt-in. Add the base class .table to any <table>, then extend with our optional modifier classes or custom styles. All table styles are inherited in Bootstrap, meaning any nested tables will be styled in the same manner as the parent.

Using the most basic table markup, here's how .table-based tables look in Bootstrap.

{{< example >}}

#	First	Last	Handle
1	Mark	Otto	@mdo
2	Jacob	Thornton	@fat
3	Larry	the Bird	@twitter

{{< /example >}}

Options

Inverted

You can also invert the colors—with light text on dark backgrounds—with .table-dark.

{{< example >}}

#	First	Last	Handle
1	Mark	Otto	@mdo
2	Jacob	Thornton	@fat
3	Larry	the Bird	@twitter

{{< /example >}}

Striped rows

Use .table-striped to add zebra-striping to any table row within the <tbody>.

Bordered

Add .table-bordered for borders on all sides of the table and cells.

#	First	Last	Handle
1	Mark	Otto	@mdo
2	Jacob	Thornton	@fat
3	Larry the Bird		@twitter

{{< example >}}

#	First	Last	Handle

2	Jacob	Thornton	@fat
3	Larry the Bird		@twitter

{{< /example >}}

No borders

Add .table-borderless for a table without borders.

{{< example >}}

#	First	Last	Handle
1	Mark	Otto	@mdo
2	Jacob	Thornton	@fat
3	Larry the Bird		@twitter

{{< /example >}}

.table-borderless can also be used on dark tables.

#	First	Last	Handle
1	Mark	Otto	@mdo

{{< /example >}}

Hoverable rows

Add .table-hover to enable a hover state on table rows within a <tbody>.

{{< example >}}

#	First	Last	Handle

2	Jacob	Thornton	@fat
3	Larry the Bird		@twitter

{{< /example >}}

Small tables

Add .table-sm to make any .table more compact by cutting all cell padding in half.

{{< example >}}

#	First	Last	Handle
1	Mark	Otto	@mdo
2	Jacob	Thornton	@fat
3	Larry the Bird		@twitter

Vertical alignment

Table cells of <thead> are always vertical aligned to the bottom. Table cells in <tbody> inherit their alignment from <table> and are aligned to the the top by default.

{{< example >}}

Heading 1	Heading 2	Heading 2	Heading 4
This cell inherits vertical-align: middle; from the table	This cell inherits vertical-align: middle; from the table	This cell inherits vertical-align: middle; from the table	Nulla vitae elit libero, a pharetra augue. Cras mattis consectetur purus sit amet fermentum. Vestibulum id ligula porta felis euismod semper.
This cell inherits vertical-align: bottom; from the table row	This cell inherits vertical-align: bottom; from the table row	This cell inherits vertical-align: bottom; from the table row	Nulla vitae elit libero, a pharetra augue. Cras mattis consectetur purus sit amet fermentum. Vestibulum id ligula porta felis euismod semper.
This cell inherits vertical-align: middle; from the table	This cell inherits vertical-align: middle; from the table	This cell is aligned to the top.	Nulla vitae elit libero, a pharetra augue. Cras mattis consectetur purus sit amet fermentum. Vestibulum id ligula porta felis euismod semper.

{{< /example >}}

Variants

Use contextual classes to color table rows or individual cells.

  {{< table.inline >}}
  {{- range (index $.Site.Data "theme-colors") }}
  <tr class="table-{{ .name }}">
    <th scope="row">{{ .name | title }}</th>
    <td>Cell</td>
    <td>Cell</td>
  </tr>
  {{- end -}}
  {{< /table.inline >}}
</tbody>

Class	Heading	Heading
Active	Cell	Cell
Default	Cell	Cell

{{< highlight html >}}

... {{< table.inline >}} {{- range (index $.Site.Data "theme-colors") }} ... {{- end -}} {{< /table.inline >}} ... {{< table.inline >}} {{- range (index $.Site.Data "theme-colors") }} ... {{- end -}} {{< /table.inline >}} {{< /highlight >}}

Regular table background variants are not available with the dark table, however, you may use [text or background utilities]({{< docsref "/utilities/colors" >}}) to achieve similar styles.

#	Heading	Heading
1	Cell	Cell
2	Cell	Cell
3	Cell	Cell
4	Cell	Cell
5	Cell	Cell
6	Cell	Cell
7	Cell	Cell
8	Cell	Cell
9	Cell	Cell

Anatomy

Table head

Similar to tables and dark tables, use the modifier classes .thead-light or .thead-dark to make <thead>s appear light or dark gray.

{{< example >}}

#	First	Last	Handle
1	Mark	Otto	@mdo
2	Jacob	Thornton	@fat

Captions

A <caption> functions like a heading for a table. It helps users with screen readers to find a table and understand what it's about and decide if they want to read it.

Responsive tables

Responsive tables allow tables to be scrolled horizontally with ease. Make any table responsive across all viewports by wrapping a .table with .table-responsive. Or, pick a maximum breakpoint with which to have a responsive table up to by using .table-responsive{-sm|-md|-lg|-xl}.

{{< callout warning >}}

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. {{< /callout >}}

Always responsive

Across every breakpoint, use .table-responsive for horizontally scrolling tables.

#	Heading	Heading	Heading	Heading	Heading	Heading	Heading	Heading	Heading
1	Cell	Cell	Cell	Cell	Cell	Cell	Cell	Cell	Cell
2	Cell	Cell	Cell	Cell	Cell	Cell	Cell	Cell	Cell
3	Cell	Cell	Cell	Cell	Cell	Cell	Cell	Cell	Cell

{{< highlight html >}}

...

{{< /highlight >}}

Breakpoint specific

Use .table-responsive{-sm|-md|-lg|-xl} as needed to create responsive tables up to a particular breakpoint. From that breakpoint and up, the table will behave normally and not scroll horizontally.

These tables may appear broken until their responsive styles apply at specific viewport widths.

{{< tables.inline >}} {{ range $.Site.Data.breakpoints }} {{ if not (eq . "xs") }}

#	Heading	Heading	Heading	Heading	Heading	Heading	Heading	Heading
1	Cell	Cell	Cell	Cell	Cell	Cell	Cell	Cell
2	Cell	Cell	Cell	Cell	Cell	Cell	Cell	Cell
3	Cell	Cell	Cell	Cell	Cell	Cell	Cell	Cell

{{ end -}} {{- end -}} {{< /tables.inline >}}

{{< highlight html >}} {{< tables.inline >}} {{- range $.Site.Data.breakpoints -}} {{- if not (eq . "xs") }}

...

{{ end -}} {{- end -}} {{< /tables.inline >}} {{< /highlight >}}
