Can anyone advise me a free html template which can be widened according to the information I print on the webpage.That information will be a huge table which overwhelmingly surpasses the sizes of a normal html page(both x and y axis).

Tables will be sized according to their contents. Just render the bugger, and your browser will provide scrollbars.

Probably, you could specify the width of the table in percent; so, for any resolution, it does not include the horizontal (< ---- > ) scroll bars, only the vertical scroll bars.

If you squish a lot of content into one width and height of the screen, it probably won't be very readable.

Yes I agree a thing.If I cancel the horizontal scroll bars,it wont seem good.I need an html template that can both be widened and heightened according to the length of the text...

If you just want to scroll a table:

(Toggle Plain Text)

table#myTable {
    width: 95%;
    height: 50%;
    overflow: auto;
}

That should do it.
