CF8 Table in Form Load Extends off page. Supposed to be responsive or have a scrollbar?

ITadminguy 17 Mar, 2024
I managed to get the Table Action to display in a form on load. ( I got hung up because the "data path" just uses the table columns, and the old "model id "data bath" is no longer required.)

Table displays the entire selected table from the databse.

But the number of columns extends the table off the right side of the screen.

There are numbers at the top left and top bottom of the table to see all the table ros in the event that the number of table rows exceeds the setting of table row count in the Table Action.

I am using gantry5 where everything displayed (including all chronoforms fields) is responsive.

Is the table supposed to be responsive?

Or is there supposed to be a scroll bar at the bottom of the table in order to see the results that extend off the page?

Or perhaps this requires a "class" to be added in order to see the entire table results?

Thanks in advance.

For frontend tables you can add the table inside a Container, set a class for the container, say: outer_table then use a CSS view to make this container scrollable:

.outer_table{
overflow:auto !important;
}
