Add a horizontal scrollbar to an HTML table

Issue

Is there a way to add a horizontal scrollbar to an HTML table? I actually need it to be scrollable both vertically and horizontally depending on how the table grows but I cannot get either scrollbar to appear.

Solution

Did you try CSS overflow property?

overflow: scroll; /* Scrollbar are always visible */
overflow: auto;   /* Scrollbar is displayed as it's needed */

UPDATE
As other users are pointing out, this is not enough to add the scrollbars.
So please, see and upvote comments and answers below.
