How to display tables on mobile using Bootstrap?

Bootstrap 3 introduces responsive tables:

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

Bootstrap 4 is similar, but with more control via some new classes:

...responsive across all viewports ... 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}.

Responsive Tables


All tables within bootstrap stretch according to the container they're in. You can put your tables inside a .span element to control the size. This SO Question may help you out

Why do Twitter Bootstrap tables always have 100% width?


You might also consider trying one of these approaches, since larger tables aren't exactly friendly on mobile even if it works:

I'm partial to 'No More Tables' but that obviously depends on your application.


After researching for almost 1 month i found the below code which is working very beautifully and 100% perfectly on my website. To check the preview how it is working you can check from the link. https://www.jobsedit.in/state-government-jobs/
