How to deal with table overflow in semantic UI

<div style="overflow-x: scroll">
   <table class="ui table">
     ... table data ...
   </table>
</div>

I have a table that has many columns and rows in it. It overflows off the page and I can only scroll horizontally when I reach the very bottom of the page/table.

How can I make it so that no matter how "tall" the table is, I can still be able to scroll horizontally at any point scrolling up and down on the table?

Edit: JSFiddle link to example is here: http://jsfiddle.net/2111sku5/

In the JSFiddle, you can see that you have to scroll all the way to the bottom of the table in order to scroll horizontally to see the rest of the headers.

You must give your div that wraps the table a specific width and height and then set overflow to 'auto' or scroll. In your code, it should be like:

    <div style="width:800px;height:300px;overflow-x: scroll;">
         <table>
                <thead>
                    <tr>
                        <th ng-repeat="datum in data"
                            ng-bind="datum.id"></th>
                    </tr>
                </thead>
                <tbody>
                    <tr ng-repeat="datum in data">
                        <td ng-bind="datum.first_name"></td>
                        <td ng-bind="datum.last_name"></td>
                        <td ng-bind="datum.email"></td>
                        <td ng-bind="datum.gender"></td>
                        <td ng-bind="datum.ip_address"></td>
                    </tr>
                </tbody>
         </table>
   </div>

Edit: Here's a JSfiddle. See if this works for you:

th, td {
   border: 1px solid black;
   padding: 5px;
}

#outer {
  display: flex; 
  height: 70vh; 
  flex-direction: row; 
  align-items: stretch;
  border-style: solid;
}
#inner1 {
  flex: 1;
  border-style: dotted;
  overflow-x:scroll;
}
#inner2 {
  display: flex; 
  flex-flow: column; 
  height: 100%;
}
#inner2top {
  flex: 0 1 auto;
  background-color: cyan;
  float:left;
  position:fixed;
  width:100%;
}
#inner2bottom {
  flex: 1 1 auto;
}
<div id="outer">
  <div>
    Hello This is a div.
  </div>
      <div id="inner1">
          <div id="inner2">
            <div id="inner2top">
                Inner 2 top.
                
            </div>
            <div id="inner2bottom">
                Inner 2 bottom.
