Sometimes we need to display an html table with fixed header,following is the code for a table with fixed header.
This task can be completed with keeping two things in mind.
1. Div tag with style="height:300px; overflow:auto;”
This makes division section fixed in page and allow scrollbar to apper.
2. Making Table header position relative to parent (div) ,
<tr style="position:relative; top:expression(offsetParent.scrollTop); ">
In this example, I have added 2 elements in table, to see the effect you need to enter more elements that exceeds the div tag height.
Moreover, we can use style="position:relative; top:expression(offsetParent.scrollTop); " to make header fixed for datagrid also.
CODE:
<div style="height:300px; overflow:auto; ">
<table cellspacing="5" width= "952px" style="border-right: black thin solid; border-top: black thin solid; border-left: black thin solid; border-bottom: black thin solid; border-collapse: separate; table-layout: auto; vertical-align: middle; overflow: auto; text-align: center; background-color: navajowhite;" cellpadding="5" frame="box">
<thead style="background:Brown">
<tr style="position:relative; top:expression(offsetParent.scrollTop);">
<th>Station</th>
<th>Date</th>
<th>Status</th>
<th style="width: 161px">Num.</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>KABC</td>
<td>09/12/2002</td>
<td>Submitted</td>
<td>0</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>KCBS</td>
<td>Lockdown</td>
<td></td>
<td>2</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
