How to Create Tables Scroll From Div Tag using CSS without Table Tag

How to use the ‘display’ property to represent a table?

The below table gives you the relation between a ‘table‘ tag and the corresponding supported CSS property to represent the same element. So, when creating a table, all you need to do is, instead of the HTML ‘table‘ tag, merely use the ‘div‘ tag and add the corresponding CSS to display a table.

<table> {display:table}
<tr> {display: table-row}
<thead> {display: table-header-group}
<tbody> {display: table-row-group}
<tfoot> {display: table-footer-group}
<col> {display: table-column}
<colgroup> {display: table-column-group}
<td>, <th> {display: table-cell}
<caption> {display: table-caption}

Step 1: Create Master Div for the Table

HTML

<div class="d-tbl"></div>

CSS

.d-tbl {
    width: 100%;
    display: table;
    border-collapse: collapse;
}

Step 3: Create a Table Caption, Header, Body, Footer

HTML

<div class="d-tbl">
    <div class="d-tbl-head"></div>
    <div class="d-tbl-body">/div>
    <div class="d-tbl-foot"></div>
</div>

CSS

.d-tbl-caption{
    display: table-caption;
    text-align: center;
    font-weight: bold;
}
.d-tbl-head,
.d-tbl-foot {
    display: table-header-group;
    background-color: white;
}
.d-tbl-body {
    display: table-row-group;
}

Step3: Create Table Rows, cell, head-cell, foot-cell

HTML

<div class="d-tbl">
    <div class="d-tbl-head">
        <div class="d-tbl-row">
            <div class="d-tbl-cell d-tbl-head-cell">Header 1</div>
            <div class="d-tbl-cell d-tbl-head-cell">Header 2</div>
            <div class="d-tbl-cell d-tbl-head-cell">Header 3</div>
            <div class="d-tbl-cell d-tbl-head-cell">Header 4</div>
        </div>
    </div>
    <div class="d-tbl-body">
        <div class="d-tbl-row">
            <div class="d-tbl-cell">Column 1</div>
            <div class="d-tbl-cell">Column 2</div>
            <div class="d-tbl-cell">Column 3</div>
            <div class="d-tbl-cell">Column 4</div>
        </div>
    </div>
    <div class="d-tbl-foot">
        <div class="d-tbl-row">
            <div class="d-tbl-cell d-tbl-head-foot">Footer 1</div>
            <div class="d-tbl-cell d-tbl-head-foot">Footer 2</div>
            <div class="d-tbl-cell d-tbl-head-foot">Footer 3</div>
            <div class="d-tbl-cell d-tbl-head-foot">Footer 4</div>
        </div>
    </div>
</div>

CSS

.d-tbl-row {
    display: table-row;
}
.d-tbl-cell {
    display: table-cell;
    padding: 5px;
    border: 1px solid #dee2e6;
}
.d-tbl-head-cell,
.d-tbl-foot-cell {
    font-weight: bold;
}

        <div class="d-tbl-head" id="d-tbl-fix-head"></div>
        <div class="d-tbl-body" id="d-tbl-fix-body" onscroll="tblFixScroll('d-tbl-fix-head', 'd-tbl-fix-body')"></div>
    </div>
</div>

CSS

.p_fix_table {
    width: 100%;
    max-height: 250px;
    overflow: hidden;
}
.p_fix_table .d-tbl {
    display: flex;
    flex-direction: column;
    flex: 1 1 auto;
    width: 100%;
    max-height: 250px;
    border: 1px solid #dee2e6;
    border-collapse: collapse;
    overflow: hidden;
}
.p_fix_table .d-tbl-head {
    flex: 1 0 auto;
    display: block;
    overflow-x: hidden;
    overflow-y: scroll;
    scrollbar-base-color: #dee2e6;
    scrollbar-face-color: #dee2e6;
    scrollbar-highlight-color: #dee2e6;
    scrollbar-track-color: #dee2e6;
    scrollbar-arrow-color: #dee2e6;
    scrollbar-shadow-color: #dee2e6;
}
.p_fix_table .d-tbl-head::-webkit-scrollbar {
    display: block;
    background-color: transparent;
}
.p_fix_table .d-tbl-head::-webkit-scrollbar-track {
    background-color: transparent;
}
.p_fix_table .d-tbl-body {

    overflow: scroll;
    max-height: 220px;
}
.p_fix_table .d-tbl-body:nth-child(3) {
    display: none;
}
.p_fix_table .d-tbl-cell,
.p_fix_table .d-tbl-head-cell {
    width: 170px;
    min-width: 170px;
    padding: 5px;
    border: 1px solid #dee2e6;

.p_fix_table .d-tbl-row .d-tbl-cell:first-child,
.p_fix_table .d-tbl-row .d-tbl-head-cell:first-child {
    position: sticky;
    left:0;
    background: white;
    z-index: 1;
}

JS

function tblFixScroll(thead_id, tbody_id) {
    let thead = document.getElementById(thead_id);
    let tbodyScroll = document.getElementById(tbody_id).scrollLeft;
    thead.scrollLeft = tbodyScroll;
    //document.getElementById("frozen").scrollLeft = 0;
}
