Issue
I have a site with a large table on it, It is very high and because of this to get to the horizontal scroll bar I have to scroll to the bottom of the page.
Is there anyway to have the horizontal scroll bar floating at the bottom of the window and always accessible without having to scroll to the bottom of the webpage first?
Solution
I am posting the answer, because i don't have enough reputation.
