Scrolling of 'datacontent'

petter

I have tried, unsucessfully, to make the header 'fixed' while scrolling the content of the tbody.

Seems IE doesn't like setting fixed height of the tbody, works ok in opera/chrome/firefox.
Any idea's here??

Maybe a 'workaround' would be to split up the rendring of the dataTable into two tables, one containing the header and one containg the data..

Hi Petter,

There is quite a lot of information about this on the web - just Google for "scrolling tbody". Here is a great example which does the required job: http://www.imaputz.com/cssStuff/bigFourVersion.html .

Although your work around probably would work, it seems a bit unnecessary since what you are trying to achieve can be done in CSS, and it would be semantically incorrect.

I checked out that link, but it i want work in IE7..
Works in Opera/Firefox/Chrome..
And as 90% of our customers are using IE... :(

The site claims that it should work with IE. I'll have a look a trying to build a demo of this with DataTables in the near future.

Hi,

I've tried playing around with getting scolling content within the table using the link suggested:
http://www.imaputz.com/cssStuff/bigFourVersion.html

But this causes real problems with column widths and formatting, is there an example available of scrolling content working with the datatables plugin?

Cheers
