Question

is it possible to put table in scrollable div? I tried, but then displaying bigger table with more rows and columns, distorts others divs, i mean shows in that scrollable div other divs from lower.

Thank you, Best Regards

            <td>B</td>
            <td>C</td>
            <td>D</td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
            <td>A</td>
            <td>B</td>
            <td>C</td>
            <td>D</td>
        </tr>
        <tr>

            <td>B</td>
            <td>C</td>
            <td>D</td>

Set a style on your div with the width and height and set overflow to auto
