Is there any way to make content inside the table scrollable, just like overflow:auto;
without using CSS's overflow
property? I'm working of HTML 3.2 and IE 3.0 version so using CSS is not a good idea. The main point is, lots of CSS property is not supported so I need to make it using only Table.

I'm also curious, why does it need to support HTML 3.2? – Dan Green-Leipciger Dec 24 '14 at 10:07

1I think you can use CSS 1.0 at least. Have you tried `style="overflow:scroll;"` ? I can't find out if overflow is a CSS 1.0 property – Apolo Dec 24 '14 at 10:24

1@Apolo MDN says "overflow" starts with ie4: https://developer.mozilla.org/de/docs/Web/CSS/overflow#Browser_Kompatibilit.C3.A4t – Werner Dec 24 '14 at 10:52

1Thank you all for your kind replies. Actually, I'm working with an abc company and it have several hundreds of Kiosk machine installed different parts of the country which have ie3 browser installed. I tried using CSS overflow but due to limited support of CSS properties in HTML 3.2, I couldn't use this as well. I hope this helps to reply some of you and expecting new answers. – shresthasans Dec 28 '14 at 08:27

Use the keyword scrolling=yes/no/auto. This is widely used in HTML3.2 and HTML3.0.
