Basic example
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.
# | First Name | Last Name | Username |
---|---|---|---|
1 | Mark | Otto | @mdo |
2 | Jacob | Thornton | @fat |
3 | Larry | the Bird |
<table class="table">
...
</table>
Striped rows
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.

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

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

---|---|---|---|
1 | Mark | Otto | @mdo |
2 | Jacob | Thornton | @fat |
3 | Larry | the Bird |
<table class="table table-hover">

Condensed table
Add .table-condensed
to make tables more compact by cutting cell padding in half.

.success
|
Indicates a successful or positive action |
.info
|
Indicates a neutral informative change or action |
.warning

.danger

<!-- On rows -->

<tr class="danger">...</tr>
<tr class="info">...</tr>

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