I am trying to enter entries in table inputs for my inventory website. I want to freeze the headers of each column and tried doing it with this -> Freeze the top row for an html table only (Fixed Table Header Scrolling)
window.onload = function(){
var to_show = '';
for(var i = 1 ; i < 50 ; i++){
to_show += '<tr><td><input type="text" autocomplete="off" id="product_name_'+ i +'" name="product_name_'+i+'" onkeyup="productSearch(this.value, '+i+')" tabindex="-1" style="font-size:larger;"></td>';
to_show += '<td><input type="text" autocomplete="off" id="location_'+ i +'" name="location_'+ i +'" onkeyup="productSearch(this.value, '+ i +')" tabindex="-1" style="font-size:larger;"></td></tr>';
}
document.getElementById('addInside_tr_20').innerHTML = to_show;
}@import url("https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Montserrat:300,400|Oswald:200,300,400&display=swap");

(Sorry for the extensive code length) The Problem is the "thead" is not aligned with "tbody" as in column perspective because of overflow in vertical direction. I've asked this question before but that doesn't seem to work for me. Also, there will be some more columns added in the future. No custom size width answers please
You may take a look at position:sticky to preserve the integrity of the table-layout (no display reset).
the scroll bar has to come from the parent container
From your current code , we can be inspired from How to set tbody height with overflow scroll and do
