jQuery Fixed Table Header Plugin 1.0

10/31/2009 2:50:48 PM #

Thank you so much for this and for sharing it. One question--it seems that if you include a tfoot in the table HTML, it breaks the functionality in just IE7. Is there anyway around this? It doesn't completely break it but the only way to get the fixed header to work is to scroll the page down a bit and then refresh the page. Thanks again! (I'm sorry if this got posted multiple times!!)

Hi, me again. I have a search form in the table header and in IE8, once you begin scrolling the page and then try to use the search, it won't work--clicking on the submit button doesn't do anything, nor does simply hitting enter when in the text field. Any ideas if this can be fixed? I'm anxious to use this because it is absolutely perfect in terms of functionality. You really did a great job!

Hi Mustafa,

Great plug-in. I’ve changed 2 lines to let it work for my sites:
$clonedTable.attr("id", "fixedtableheader" + i)
   .css({ "position": "fixed", "top": "0", "left": $tbl.offset().left })
   .append($tblhfixed.clone(true))
   .width(tblwidth)
   .hide()
   .insertAfter( $tbl )

1) I need my handlers cloned
2) If I append the cloned table to body, my CSS doesn’t work anymore. Insert the cloned table after the original table, this way it stays in the same div.

Regards,
Anton
