    You will have to make use of the CSS position: fixed; property.

    But there will be much more to do to get it to be fully readable.

    You could use Javascript also, but that can get more complicated then this way.

    The fixed column (the first td in each tr) will be above the columns when you scroll and stay at the start of table.

    Make sure you put a background color on the fixed TD's or it will not be readable. Also, you will need to position the fixed TD away from the other TD's as it will cover the second column.

    
    <table>
    <tr>
    <td style="position: fixed;">Data</td>
    <td>Data</td>
    <td>Data</td>
    <td>Data</td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
    <td style="position: fixed;">Data</td>
    <td>Data</td>
    <td>Data</td>
    <td>Data</td>
    </tr>
    </table>
