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 not inherited in Bootstrap, meaning any nested tables can be styled independent from the parent.
Using the most basic table markup, here’s how .table
-based tables look in Bootstrap.
<table class="table"> <thead> <tr> <th scope="col">#</th> <th scope="col">First</th> <th scope="col">Last</th> <th scope="col">Handle</th> </tr> </thead> <tbody> <tr> <th scope="row">1</th> <td>Mark</td> <td>Otto</td> <td>@mdo</td> </tr> <tr> <th scope="row">2</th> <td>Jacob</td> <td>Thornton</td> <td>@fat</td> </tr> <tr> <th scope="row">3</th> <td colspan="2">Larry the Bird</td> <td>@twitter</td> </tr> </tbody> </table>
Use contextual classes to color tables, table rows or individual cells.
<!-- On tables --> <table class="table-primary">...</table> <table class="table-secondary">...</table> <table class="table-success">...</table> <table class="table-danger">...</table> <table class="table-warning">...</table> <table class="table-info">...</table> <table class="table-light">...</table> <table class="table-dark">...</table> <!-- On rows --> <tr class="table-primary">...</tr> <tr class="table-secondary">...</tr> <tr class="table-success">...</tr> <tr class="table-danger">...</tr> <tr class="table-warning">...</tr> <tr class="table-info">...</tr> <tr class="table-light">...</tr> <tr class="table-dark">...</tr> <!-- On cells (`td` or `th`) --> <tr> <td class="table-primary">...</td> <td class="table-secondary">...</td> <td class="table-success">...</td> <td class="table-danger">...</td> <td class="table-warning">...</td> <td class="table-info">...</td> <td class="table-light">...</td> <td class="table-dark">...</td> </tr>
.visually-hidden
class. Use .table-striped
to add zebra-striping to any table row within the <tbody>
.
<table class="table table-striped"> ... </table>
Use .table-striped-columns
to add zebra-striping to any table column.
<table class="table table-striped-columns"> ... </table>
These classes can also be added to table variants:
<table class="table table-dark table-striped"> ... </table>
<table class="table table-dark table-striped-columns"> ... </table>
<table class="table table-success table-striped"> ... </table>
<table class="table table-success table-striped-columns"> ... </table>
Add .table-hover
to enable a hover state on table rows within a <tbody>
.
<table class="table table-hover"> ... </table>
<table class="table table-dark table-hover"> ... </table>
These hoverable rows can also be combined with the striped rows variant:
<table class="table table-striped table-hover"> ... </table>
Highlight a table row or cell by adding a .table-active
class.
<table class="table"> <thead> ... </thead> <tbody> <tr class="table-active"> ... </tr> <tr> ... </tr> <tr> <th scope="row">3</th> <td colspan="2" class="table-active">Larry the Bird</td> <td>@twitter</td> </tr> </tbody> </table>
<table class="table table-dark"> <thead> ... </thead> <tbody> <tr class="table-active"> ... </tr> <tr> ... </tr> <tr> <th scope="row">3</th> <td colspan="2" class="table-active">Larry the Bird</td> <td>@twitter</td> </tr> </tbody> </table>
For the accented tables (striped rows, striped columns, hoverable rows, and active tables), we used some techniques to make these effects work for all our table variants:
--bs-table-bg
custom property. All table variants then set that custom property to colorize the table cells. This way, we don’t get into trouble if semi-transparent colors are used as table backgrounds.box-shadow: inset 0 0 0 9999px var(--bs-table-bg-state, var(--bs-table-bg-type, var(--bs-table-accent-bg)));
to layer on top of any specified background-color
. It uses custom cascade to override the box-shadow
, regardless the CSS specificity. Because we use a huge spread and no blur, the color will be monotone. Since --bs-table-accent-bg
is set to transparent
by default, we don’t have a default box shadow..table-striped
, .table-striped-columns
, .table-hover
or .table-active
classes are added, either --bs-table-bg-type
or --bs-table-bg-state
(by default set to initial
) are set to a semitransparent color (--bs-table-striped-bg
, --bs-table-active-bg
or --bs-table-hover-bg
) to colorize the background and override default --bs-table-accent-bg
.--bs-table-accent-bg
color with the highest contrast depending on that color. For example, the accent color for .table-primary
is darker while .table-dark
has a lighter accent color.Behind the scenes it looks like this:
@mixin table-variant($state, $background) { .table-#{$state} { $color: color-contrast(opaque($body-bg, $background)); $hover-bg: mix($color, $background, percentage($table-hover-bg-factor)); $striped-bg: mix($color, $background, percentage($table-striped-bg-factor)); $active-bg: mix($color, $background, percentage($table-active-bg-factor)); $table-border-color: mix($color, $background, percentage($table-border-factor)); --#{$prefix}table-color: #{$color}; --#{$prefix}table-bg: #{$background}; --#{$prefix}table-border-color: #{$table-border-color}; --#{$prefix}table-striped-bg: #{$striped-bg}; --#{$prefix}table-striped-color: #{color-contrast($striped-bg)}; --#{$prefix}table-active-bg: #{$active-bg}; --#{$prefix}table-active-color: #{color-contrast($active-bg)}; --#{$prefix}table-hover-bg: #{$hover-bg}; --#{$prefix}table-hover-color: #{color-contrast($hover-bg)}; color: var(--#{$prefix}table-color); border-color: var(--#{$prefix}table-border-color); } }
Add .table-bordered
for borders on all sides of the table and cells.
<table class="table table-bordered"> ... </table>
Border color utilities can be added to change colors:
<table class="table table-bordered border-primary"> ... </table>
Add .table-borderless
for a table without borders.
<table class="table table-borderless"> ... </table>
<table class="table table-dark table-borderless"> ... </table>
Add .table-sm
to make any .table
more compact by cutting all cell padding
in half.
<table class="table table-sm"> ... </table>
<table class="table table-dark table-sm"> ... </table>
Add a thicker border, darker between table groups—<thead>
, <tbody>
, and <tfoot>
—with .table-group-divider
. Customize the color by changing the border-top-color
(which we don’t currently provide a utility class for at this time).
<table class="table"> <thead> <tr> <th scope="col">#</th> <th scope="col">First</th> <th scope="col">Last</th> <th scope="col">Handle</th> </tr> </thead> <tbody class="table-group-divider"> <tr> <th scope="row">1</th> <td>Mark</td> <td>Otto</td> <td>@mdo</td> </tr> <tr> <th scope="row">2</th> <td>Jacob</td> <td>Thornton</td> <td>@fat</td> </tr> <tr> <th scope="row">3</th> <td colspan="2">Larry the Bird</td> <td>@twitter</td> </tr> </tbody> </table>
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 top by default. Use the vertical align classes to re-align where needed.
<div class="table-responsive"> <table class="table align-middle"> <thead> <tr> ... </tr> </thead> <tbody> <tr> ... </tr> <tr class="align-bottom"> ... </tr> <tr> <td>...</td> <td>...</td> <td class="align-top">This cell is aligned to the top.</td> <td>...</td> </tr> </tbody> </table> </div>
Border styles, active styles, and table variants are not inherited by nested tables.
<table class="table table-striped table-bordered"> <thead> ... </thead> <tbody> ... <tr> <td colspan="4"> <table class="table mb-0"> ... </table> </td> </tr> ... </tbody> </table>
To prevent any styles from leaking to nested tables, we use the child combinator (>
) selector in our CSS. Since we need to target all the td
s and th
s in the thead
, tbody
, and tfoot
, our selector would look pretty long without it. As such, we use the rather odd looking .table > :not(caption) > * > *
selector to target all td
s and th
s of the .table
, but none of any potential nested tables.
Note that if you add <tr>
s as direct children of a table, those <tr>
will be wrapped in a <tbody>
by default, thus making our selectors work as intended.
Similar to tables and dark tables, use the modifier classes .table-light
or .table-dark
to make <thead>
s appear light or dark gray.
<table class="table"> <thead class="table-light"> ... </thead> <tbody> ... </tbody> </table>
<table class="table"> <thead class="table-dark"> ... </thead> <tbody> ... </tbody> </table>
<table class="table"> <thead> ... </thead> <tbody> ... </tbody> <tfoot> ... </tfoot> </table>
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.
<table class="table table-sm"> <caption>List of users</caption> <thead> ... </thead> <tbody> ... </tbody> </table>
You can also put the <caption>
on the top of the table with .caption-top
.
<table class="table caption-top"> <caption>List of users</caption> <thead> <tr> <th scope="col">#</th> <th scope="col">First</th> <th scope="col">Last</th> <th scope="col">Handle</th> </tr> </thead> <tbody> <tr> <th scope="row">1</th> <td>Mark</td> <td>Otto</td> <td>@mdo</td> </tr> <tr> <th scope="row">2</th> <td>Jacob</td> <td>Thornton</td> <td>@fat</td> </tr> <tr> <th scope="row">3</th> <td>Larry</td> <td>the Bird</td> <td>@twitter</td> </tr> </tbody> </table>
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|-xxl}
.
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.
Across every breakpoint, use .table-responsive
for horizontally scrolling tables.
<div class="table-responsive"> <table class="table"> ... </table> </div>
Use .table-responsive{-sm|-md|-lg|-xl|-xxl}
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.
<div class="table-responsive"> <table class="table"> ... </table> </div> <div class="table-responsive-sm"> <table class="table"> ... </table> </div> <div class="table-responsive-md"> <table class="table"> ... </table> </div> <div class="table-responsive-lg"> <table class="table"> ... </table> </div> <div class="table-responsive-xl"> <table class="table"> ... </table> </div> <div class="table-responsive-xxl"> <table class="table"> ... </table> </div>

$table-striped-bg-factor
, $table-active-bg-factor
& $table-hover-bg-factor
) are used to determine the contrast in table variants.$table-bg-scale
variable.
