use this style for .chat .body class , but you should duplicate user table in html until it come more than page's height , then you can see scroll comes.

.chat .body {
    overflow-y: scroll;
    height: 80%;
}

You should remove display: table-row , and also give a height less than 100% .

duplicate table tag for 10-15 time (user table in html) , you will see scrollbar with my code. – Kasra Asheghi Jan 21 '17 at 19:58

You can use jQuery to set .body height :

* {  
    box-sizing:border-box;
    ...
}

.chat {
    display: block;
    ...
}

.chat .head {
    height: 52px;
    ...
}

.chat .body {
    overflow-y: auto;
    ...
}

and jQuery

$(document).ready(function () {
    setSize();
    $(window).on('resize',setSize);
});

function setSize(){
    var CH = $('.chat').height(),
        HH = $('.chat .head').height(),
        FH = $('.chat .footer').height();
    $('.chat .body').height(CH-HH-FH);
}
