How do I create an HTML table with a fixed/frozen left column and a scrollable body?

Question

I need a simple solution. I know it\'s similar to some other questions, like:

• HTML table with fixed headers and a fixed column?
• How can I lock the fir

Answer 1

Alternatively, style the tbody with a predetermined size (via height:20em, for example) and use overflow-y:scroll;

Then, you can have a huge tbody, which will scroll independently of the rest of the page.
