This JavaScript code can be used to convert tables in ordinary HTML into scrollable ones. No additional coding is necessary. All you need to do is put header rows (if you need them) in THEAD section, table body rows in TBODY section, footer rows (if you need them) in TFOOT section.
Include the webtoolkit.scrollabletable.js, latest jquery.js library, and webtoolkit.jscrollable.js jQuery plugin for scrollable tables.
