Tables

Okay, they're not the sexiest things ever, but tables get the job done (for tabular data, of course). They have responsive modifiers to help solve some of your layout issues based on your tables needs.

Basics

No bells or whistles here, just a straight up table for all of your basic table needs.

<table>
  <thead>
    <tr>
      <th width="200">Table Header</th>
      <th>Table Header</th>
      <th width="150">Table Header</th>
      <th width="150">Table Header</th>
    </tr>
  </thead>
  <tbody>
    <tr>
      <td>Content Goes Here</td>
      <td>This is longer content Donec id elit non mi porta gravida at eget metus.</td>
      <td>Content Goes Here</td>
      <td>Content Goes Here</td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
      <td>Content Goes Here</td>
      <td>This is longer Content Goes Here Donec id elit non mi porta gravida at eget metus.</td>
      <td>Content Goes Here</td>
      <td>Content Goes Here</td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
      <td>Content Goes Here</td>
      <td>This is longer Content Goes Here Donec id elit non mi porta gravida at eget metus.</td>
      <td>Content Goes Here</td>
      <td>Content Goes Here</td>
    </tr>
  </tbody>
</table>
Table Header Table Header Table Header Table Header
Content Goes Here This is longer content Donec id elit non mi porta gravida at eget metus. Content Goes Here Content Goes Here
Content Goes Here This is longer Content Goes Here Donec id elit non mi porta gravida at eget metus. Content Goes Here Content Goes Here
Content Goes Here This is longer Content Goes Here Donec id elit non mi porta gravida at eget metus. Content Goes Here Content Goes Here

Hover State

Need to spiff up the table just a tad? Just add the class .hover to lightly darken the table rows on hover.

<table class="hover">
</table>
Table Header Table Header Table Header Table Header
Content Goes Here This is longer content Donec id elit non mi porta gravida at eget metus. Content Goes Here Content Goes Here
Content Goes Here This is longer Content Goes Here Donec id elit non mi porta gravida at eget metus. Content Goes Here Content Goes Here
Content Goes Here This is longer Content Goes Here Donec id elit non mi porta gravida at eget metus. Content Goes Here Content Goes Here

Stacked Table

To stack a table on small screens, add the class .stack.

<table class="stack">

Scrolling Table

Got a lot of tubular tabular data? Add a wrapper element with the class .table-scroll around your table to enable horizontal scrolling.

The wrapping element was added in Foundation 6.2—prior to that, you just added the class .scroll to the table itself. However, this method doesn't work great with Internet Explorer 9. If you don't need IE9 support, you can just add .scroll to your table, and the wrapping element isn't necessary.

<div class="table-scroll">
  <table></table>
</div>
