html - Responsive table handling in Twitter Bootstrap

Question

When a table's width exceed the span's width, like this page: http://jsfiddle.net/rcHdC/

You will see the table's content is outside of the span.

What would be the best method to cater this case?

Answer 1

Bootstrap 3 now has Responsive tables out of the box. Hooray! :)

You can check it here: https://getbootstrap.com/docs/3.3/css/#tables-responsive

Add a <div class="table-responsive"> surrounding your table and you should be good to go:

<div class="table-responsive">
  <table class="table">
    ...
  </table>
</div>

To make it work on all layouts you can do this:

.table-responsive
{
    overflow-x: auto;
}
