Things this plugin does:

---

• Works on tables within a scrollable container or whole window scrolling
• Works with responsive table wrappers
• Works with dynamically hidden/added/removed columns
• Doesn't clone the thead - so your events stay bound
• Doesn't mess with your styles, and doesnt require any css
• Works with border-collapse variants, weird margins, padding and borders
• Works with libs like datatables, perfect-scrollbar, bootstrap3, and many more
• Header can be floated with position:absolute which adds a wrapper, or position:fixed which does not. Both have their pros and cons. By default the best option is chosen based on your configuration

Things this plugin does NOT do:

---

• Does not float the footer
• Does not let you lock the first column like in excel
• Safari and mobile safari are not supported. It might work, or it might not, depending on your markup and safari version.

Common Pitfalls

If you use css and html best practices, this plugin will work. If you are stuck in 1999, you better read the faq.

How to get help with the floatThead

All issues should be reported through github.

I will do my best to help you in a timely manner.

Requirements:

• jQuery 1.8.x or better (1.9 compliant) (or jQuery 1.7.x and jQuery UI core)

Supported Browsers:

• IE8 or better (read this)
• Chrome, Firefox (all versions from last 3 years)

Using with IE9

FloatThead will not work properly in IE9 unless you have the following meta tag in the head of the page:

<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=11; IE=10; IE=9; IE=8; IE=7; IE=EDGE" />

With very big tables, you may also run into this exciting bug: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5805956/internet-explorer-9-not-rendering-table-cells-properly
Watch for it.
