[html] Table with 100% width with equal size columns

I have to dynamically create a table with a variable number of columns, determined at runtime.

Can somebody tell me if it's possible to have a html table with equal size columns that are fully stretched?

This question is related to html css

The answer is


If you don't know how many columns you are going to have, the declaration

table-layout: fixed

along with not setting any column widths, would imply that browsers divide the total width evenly - no matter what.

That can also be the problem with this approach, if you use this, you should also consider how overflow is to be handled.


ALL YOU HAVE TO DO:

HTML:

<table id="my-table"><tr>
<td> CELL 1 With a lot of text in it</td>
<td> CELL 2 </td>
<td> CELL 3 </td>
<td> CELL 4 With a lot of text in it </td>
<td> CELL 5 </td>
</tr></table>

CSS:

#my-table{width:100%;} /*or whatever width you want*/
#my-table td{width:2000px;} /*something big*/

if you have th you need to set it too like this:

#my-table th{width:2000px;}

table {
    width: 100%;

    th, td {
        width: 1%;
    }
}

SCSS syntax


Just add style="table-layout: fixed ; width: 100%;" inside <table> tag and also if you do not specify any styles and add just style=" width: 100%;" inside <table> You will be able to resolve it.
