HTML - Enable Scrolling within a Table's Cell

Question

Let's say I have a table cell with fixed width and height.... and I have data that exceeds the cell's fixed dimensions...

<td width="500" height="300">lots of data that exceeds the dimensions</td>

• can I enable scrolling of this data within a cell....
• if not than what is the solution.. I only have that 500 x 300 space

Answer 1

The easiest thing would be to add a 500 x 300 div and give it overflow: auto

<td width="500" height="300">
 <div style="width: 500px; height: 300px; overflow: auto">
  lots of data that exceeds the dimensions
 </div>
</td>
