Webview tables

[Ricky D]

I use webviews to display table data.

I'd like to be able to make the column headers stay
at the top of the webview when I scroll the table.

I assume it needs css or html but I don't know much about them.

Does anyone know how to do this?

Regards, Ricky

Not sure if the webview supports this but search web for the css command position: fixed.

If not an alternative would be to use a set of labels at top of webview to display header info. Or a scond webview.

I thought about using labels but I'd need to scroll them horizontally when I do it to the webview and I don't know how to implement it. Not to mention that the webview columns automatically adjust their width.

There are some coding examples on the Net, if you search for 'html fixed table header', still, what I usually do in large tables, is to repeat their headers every some fixed number of rows,with a bold and some other color formatting, in order that the user to always see the column names, without me having to worry about setting the first row fixed. Just a thought.
