How can I lock the first row and first column of a table when scrolling possibly using JavaScript and CSS

Question

How can I create a table that has its first row and first column both locked  as in Excel  when you activate  freeze panes    I need the table to both scroll horizontally and vertically  a lot of solutions for this exist  but only allow vertical scrolling    So  when you scroll down in the table  the first row will stay put  since it will have the column headings   This may end up being in a thead  or it may not  whatever makes the solution easier   When you scroll right  the first column stays put  since it holds the labels for the rows   I m pretty certain this is impossible with CSS alone  but can anyone point me toward a JavaScript solution   It needs to work in all major browsers

There are quite a few cross browser solutions for this today  among which are SuperTable which I like due to its elegance and simplicity  now being continued with MooGrid  and SlickGrid with its awesome set of features

Here is one that I made that is pure javascript css only   https   jsfiddle net KirbyLWallace x5sbe0dk 5   It s meant to be used in full width screen  but I ve modified to fit a specific width for the

How about a solution where you put the actual  data  of the table inside its own div  with overflow  scroll   Then the browser will automatically create scrollbars for the portion of the  table  you do not want to lock  and you can put the  table header  first row just above that  lt div gt    Not sure how that would work with scrolling horizontally though

Oh well  I looked up for scrollable table with fixed column to understand the need of this specific requirement and your question was one of it with no close answers     I answered this question Large dynamically sized html table with a fixed scroll row and fixed scroll column which inspired to showcase my work as a plugin https   github com meetselva fixed-table-rows-cols  The plugin basically converts a well formatted HTML table to a scrollable table with fixed table header and columns   The usage is as below       myTable   fxdHdrCol       fixedCols      3           3 fixed columns        width           100        set the width of the container  fixed or percentage        height         500         set the height of the container          You can check the demo and documentation here

I ran across a site a few weeks back  This is a working example of the first column locked but it is not browser compatible with Firefox  I didn t do a lot of checking around but it seems it only works in IE  There are some notes the author provided along with it that you can read   Lock the First column  http   home tampabay rr com bmerkey examples locked-column-csv html  Let me know if you need the Javascript to lock the Table headers too

You d have to test it but if you embedded an iframe within your page then used CSS to absolutely position the 1st row  amp  column at 0 0 in the iframe page would that solve your problem

You can do it  without javascript  see this link  http   yonax73 blogspot com 2014 09 tabla-con-cabecera-estatica-cuerpo-con html  or live demo  http   jsfiddle net yonatanalexis22 aeeme8mt 7   table  border-spacing  0  display  flex   Se ajuste dinamicamente al tamano del dispositivo    max-height  40vh    El alto que necesitemos    overflow-y  auto     El scroll verticalmente cuando sea necesario   overflow-x  hidden   Sin scroll horizontal   table-layout  fixed    Forzamos a que las filas tenga el mismo ancho    width  98vw    El ancho que necesitemos   border 1px solid gray

Here a plugin JQuery  https   github com nitsugario jQuery-Freeze-Table-Column-and-Rows  This is a jQuery plugin that can make table rows and columns not scroll   It can take a given HTML table object and set it so it can freeze a given number of columns or rows or both  so the fixed columns or rows do not scroll   The rows to be frozen should be placed in the table head section   It can also freeze rows and columns combined with using colspan or rowspan attributes

I ve posted my jQuery plugin solution here  Frozen table header inside scrollable div  It does exactly what you want and is really lightweight and easy to use

You d have to test it but if you embedded an iframe within your page then used CSS to absolutely position the 1st row  amp  column at 0 0 in the iframe page would that solve your problem

Oh well  I looked up for scrollable table with fixed column to understand the need of this specific requirement and your question was one of it with no close answers     I answered this question Large dynamically sized html table with a fixed scroll row and fixed scroll column which inspired to showcase my work as a plugin https   github com meetselva fixed-table-rows-cols  The plugin basically converts a well formatted HTML table to a scrollable table with fixed table header and columns   The usage is as below       myTable   fxdHdrCol       fixedCols      3           3 fixed columns        width           100        set the width of the container  fixed or percentage        height         500         set the height of the container          You can check the demo and documentation here

There are quite a few cross browser solutions for this today  among which are SuperTable which I like due to its elegance and simplicity  now being continued with MooGrid  and SlickGrid with its awesome set of features

Concept  A table can be sorted by clicking on the title of any column in the table  toggling between ascending and descending sorts    Assumptions     The first row of the table contains column titles that are  clicked    to sort the table    The images  desc gif   asc gif   none gif   sorting gif  exist    The img tag is in each column of the the title row to represent the   sort graphic     The CSS classes  alternateRow  and  sortedColumn  exist so we can   have alternating colors for each row and a highlight the sorted   column   Something like the  lt style gt  definition below  but with the   background colors set to whatever you want       lt style gt     tr alternateRow        background-color   E0F1E0           td sortedColumn        background-color   E0F1E0           tr

explantion of the basic concept of the following code before we      actually start   Essentially we are going to copy the current columns information      into an array to be sorted  We ll sort the column array then go back and use the information      we saved about the original row positions to re-order the entire table       We are never really sorting more than a columns worth of data  which should keep the sorting fast        Create a new array for holding row information   var clonedRows   new Array         Create a new array to store just the selected column values  not the whole row   var originalCol   new Array          Now loop through all the data row elements      NOTE  Starting at row 1 because row 0 contains the column titles   for  var i 1  i lt tr elements length - ignoreLastLines  i              Clone  the tr element i e  save a copy all of its attributes and values    clonedRows i  tr elements i  cloneNode true          Text value of the selected column on this row    var valueCol   getTextValue tr elements i  cells indexCol           Format text value for sorting depending on its type  ie Date  Currency  number  etc      valueCol   FormatForType valueCol          Assign the column value AND the row number it was originally on in the table    originalCol i   valueCol tr elements i  rowIndex             Get rid of element  0  from this array   A value was never assigned to it because the first row      in the table just contained the column titles  which we did not bother to assign    originalCol shift          Sort the column array returning the value of a sort into a new array   sortCol   originalCol sort sortCompare         If it was supposed to be an Ascending sort then reverse the order   if  sortAscending    sortCol reverse            Now take the values from the sorted column array and use that information to re-arrange      the order of the tr elements in the table   for  var i 1  i  lt  tr elements length - ignoreLastLines  i           var old row   sortCol i-1  1       var new row   i      tr elements i  parentNode replaceChild clonedRows old row  tr elements new row               Format the table  making the rows alternating colors and highlight the sorted column    makePretty table element indexCol ignoreLastLines         Assign correct sort image icon to current column title   sortColImage setAttribute  src  newSortColImage         Function used by the sort routine to compare the current value in the array with the next one function sortCompare  currValue  nextValue        Since the elements of this array are actually arrays themselves  just sort     on the first element which contiains the value  not the second which contains     the original row position   if   currValue 0     nextValue 0    return 0    if   currValue 0   lt  nextValue 0    return -1    if   currValue 0   gt  nextValue 0    return 1

How about a solution where you put the actual  data  of the table inside its own div  with overflow  scroll   Then the browser will automatically create scrollbars for the portion of the  table  you do not want to lock  and you can put the  table header  first row just above that  lt div gt    Not sure how that would work with scrolling horizontally though

Here a plugin JQuery  https   github com nitsugario jQuery-Freeze-Table-Column-and-Rows  This is a jQuery plugin that can make table rows and columns not scroll   It can take a given HTML table object and set it so it can freeze a given number of columns or rows or both  so the fixed columns or rows do not scroll   The rows to be frozen should be placed in the table head section   It can also freeze rows and columns combined with using colspan or rowspan attributes

It s actually do-able without JavaScript  but using pure CSS   HTML with sticky position  Just add  quot position sticky quot  to the cells you d like to freeze  For building a table  you can either use  or CSS grid  and this technique works on both of them  Here is an example formatting with table tag   live demo here     lt table gt     lt tr gt  lt th class  quot head quot  gt  lt  th class  quot head quot  gt  lt th gt  lt  th gt       lt  tr gt     lt tr gt  lt th class  quot head quot  gt  lt  th gt               lt th gt  lt  th gt       lt  tr gt       lt  table gt   lt style type  quot text css quot  gt     head   position  sticky  top  0  left  0    lt  style gt   And here is an example with CSS Grid   live demo here     lt div class  quot grid quot  gt      lt  -- cells to freeze -- gt      lt div class  quot entry head quot  gt  lt  div gt      lt div class  quot entry head quot  gt  lt  div gt             lt  -- normal cells -- gt      lt div class  quot entry quot  gt  lt  div gt          lt  div gt   lt style type  quot text css quot  gt     grid       display  grid      grid-template-columns  repeat  lt your-cell-count gt    lt cell-size gt             entry head   position  sticky  top  0  left  0    lt  style gt   You probably will need to take care of the cells frozen both horizontally and vertically   e g    setting a z-index larger than others   but it will be still CSS thing  I think the main drawback of this approach is  probably  the browser compatibility issue  Check Can I Use CSS-sticky and Can I use CSS grid before using these techniques

You need two tables  where the first one is an exact overlay over the second one  The second one contains all the data  where the first one just contains the first column  You have to synchronize it s width and depending on the content also the height of it s rows    Additional to this two tables  you need a third one  That s the first row  which lays exactly between the other two and has to be synchronized in the same way   You will need absolute positioning here  Next  you would synchronize the scrolling of the data table with the scrolling positions of the head row and first column table   That works very well in all major browsers  except for one issue  The synchronized scrolling will flutter  To fix that  you need two outher div containers that hold a clone of the content of the header row and the first column  When scrolling vertically  you display the header row clone to prevent fluttering  while you reposition the original in the background  When scrolling horizontally  you would show the first row clone  Same thing here

You d have to test it but if you embedded an iframe within your page then used CSS to absolutely position the 1st row  amp  column at 0 0 in the iframe page would that solve your problem

Concept  A table can be sorted by clicking on the title of any column in the table  toggling between ascending and descending sorts    Assumptions     The first row of the table contains column titles

CSS classes  alternateRow  and  sortedColumn  exist so we can   have alternating colors for each row and a highlight the sorted   column   Something like the  lt style gt  definition below  but with the   background colors set to whatever you want       lt style gt     tr alternateRow        background-color   E0F1E0           td sortedColumn        background-color   E0F1E0           tr

explantion of the basic concept of the following code before we      actually start   Essentially we are going to copy the current columns information      into an array to be sorted  We ll sort the column array then go back and use the information      we saved about the original row positions to re-order the entire table       We are never really sorting more than a columns worth of data  which should keep the sorting fast        Create a new array for holding row information   var clonedRows   new Array         Create a new array to store just the selected column values  not the whole row   var originalCol   new Array          Now loop through all the data row elements      NOTE  Starting at row 1 because row 0 contains the column titles   for  var i 1  i lt tr elements length - ignoreLastLines  i              Clone  the tr element i e  save a copy all of its attributes and values    clonedRows i  tr elements i  cloneNode true          Text value of the selected column on this row    var valueCol   getTextValue tr elements i  cells indexCol           Format text value for sorting depending on its type  ie Date  Currency  number  etc      valueCol   FormatForType valueCol          Assign the column value AND the row number it was originally on in the table    originalCol i   valueCol tr elements i  rowIndex             Get rid of element  0  from this array   A value was never assigned to it because the first row      in the table just contained the column titles  which we did not bother to assign    originalCol shift          Sort the column array returning the value of a sort into a new array   sortCol   originalCol sort sortCompare         If it was supposed to be an Ascending sort then reverse the order   if  sortAscending    sortCol reverse            Now take the values from the sorted column array and use that information to re-arrange      the order of the tr elements in the table   for  var i 1  i  lt  tr elements length - ignoreLastLines  i           var old row   sortCol i-1  1       var new row   i      tr elements i  parentNode replaceChild clonedRows old row  tr elements new row               Format the table  making the rows alternating colors and highlight the sorted column    makePretty table element indexCol ignoreLastLines         Assign correct sort image icon to current column title   sortColImage setAttribute  src  newSortColImage         Function used by the sort routine to compare the current value in the array with the next one function sortCompare  currValue  nextValue        Since the elements of this array are actually arrays themselves  just sort     on the first element which contiains the value  not the second which contains     the original row position   if   currValue 0     nextValue 0    return 0    if   currValue 0   lt  nextValue 0    return -1    if   currValue 0   gt  nextValue 0    return 1

How about a solution where you put the actual  data  of the table inside its own div  with overflow  scroll   Then the browser will automatically create scrollbars for the portion of the  table  you do not want to lock  and you can put the  table header  first row just above that  lt div gt    Not sure how that would work with scrolling horizontally though

Sort and Lock Table is the only solution I have seen which does work on other browsers than IE   although this  locked column css  might do the trick as well    Required code block below    lt

Concept  A table can be sorted by clicking on the title of any column in the table  toggling between ascending and descending sorts    Assumptions     The first row of the table contains column titles

CSS classes  alternateRow  and  sortedColumn  exist so we can   have alternating colors for each row and a highlight the sorted   column   Something like the  lt style gt  definition below  but with

explantion of the basic concept of the following code before we      actually start   Essentially we are going to copy the current columns information      into an array to be sorted  We ll sort the column array then go back and use the information      we saved about the original row positions to re-order the entire table       We are never really sorting more than a columns worth of data  which should keep the sorting fast        Create a new array for holding row information   var clonedRows   new Array         Create a new array to store just the selected column values  not the whole row   var originalCol   new Array          Now loop through all the data row elements      NOTE  Starting at row 1 because row 0 contains the column titles   for  var i 1  i lt tr elements length - ignoreLastLines  i              Clone  the tr element i e  save a copy all of its attributes and values    clonedRows i  tr elements i  cloneNode true          Text value of the selected column on this row    var valueCol   getTextValue tr elements i  cells indexCol           Format text value for sorting depending on its type  ie Date  Currency  number  etc      valueCol   FormatForType valueCol          Assign the column value AND the row number it was originally on in the table    originalCol i   valueCol tr elements i  rowIndex             Get rid of element  0  from this array   A value was never assigned to it because the first row      in the table just contained the column titles  which we did not bother to assign    originalCol shift          Sort the column array returning the value of a sort into a new array   sortCol   originalCol sort sortCompare         If it was supposed to be an Ascending sort then reverse the order   if  sortAscending    sortCol reverse            Now take the values from the sorted column array and use that information to re-arrange      the order of the tr elements in the table   for  var i 1  i  lt  tr elements length - ignoreLastLines  i           var old row   sortCol i-1  1       var new row   i      tr elements i  parentNode replaceChild clonedRows old row  tr elements new row               Format the table  making the rows alternating colors and highlight the sorted column    makePretty table element indexCol ignoreLastLines         Assign correct sort image icon to current column title   sortColImage setAttribute  src  newSortColImage         Function used by the sort routine to compare the current value in the array with the next one function sortCompare  currValue  nextValue        Since the elements of this array are actually arrays themselves  just sort     on the first element which contiains the value  not the second which contains     the original row position   if   currValue 0     nextValue 0    return 0    if   currValue 0   lt  nextValue 0    return -1    if   currValue 0   gt  nextValue 0    return 1

Concept  A table can be sorted by clicking on the title of any column in the table  toggling between ascending and descending sorts    Assumptions     The first row of the table contains column titles that are  clicked    to sort the table    The images  desc gif   asc gif   none gif   sorting gif  exist    The img tag is in each column of the the title row to represent the   sort graphic     The CSS classes  alternateRow  and  sortedColumn  exist so we can   have alternating colors for each row and a highlight the sorted   column   Something like the  lt style gt  definition below  but with the   background colors set to whatever you want       lt style gt     tr alternateRow        background-color   E0F1E0           td sortedColumn        background-color   E0F1E0           tr

If the optional ignoreLastLines parameter  number of lines  not  to sort at end of table       was not passed then make it 0   ignoreLastLines    typeof ignoreLastLines    undefined     0

explantion of the basic concept of the following code before we      actually start   Essentially we are going to copy the current columns information      into an array to be sorted  We ll sort the column array then go back and use the information      we saved about the original row positions to re-order the entire table       We are never really sorting more than a columns worth of data  which should keep the sorting fast        Create a new array for holding row information   var clonedRows   new Array         Create a new array to store just the selected column values  not the whole row   var originalCol   new Array          Now loop through all the data row elements      NOTE  Starting at row 1 because row 0 contains the column titles   for  var i 1  i lt tr elements length - ignoreLastLines  i              Clone  the tr element i e  save a copy all of its attributes and values    clonedRows i  tr elements i  cloneNode true          Text value of the selected column on this row    var valueCol   getTextValue tr elements i  cells indexCol           Format text value for sorting depending on its type  ie Date  Currency  number  etc      valueCol   FormatForType valueCol          Assign the column value AND the row number it was originally on in the table    originalCol i   valueCol tr elements i  rowIndex             Get rid of element  0  from this array   A value was never assigned to it because the first row      in the table just contained the column titles  which we did not bother to assign    originalCol shift          Sort the column array returning the value of a sort into a new array   sortCol   originalCol sort sortCompare         If it was supposed to be an Ascending sort then reverse the order   if  sortAscending    sortCol reverse            Now take the values from the sorted column array and use that information to re-arrange      the order of the tr elements in the table   for  var i 1  i  lt  tr elements length - ignoreLastLines  i           var old row   sortCol i-1  1       var new row   i      tr elements i  parentNode replaceChild clonedRows old row  tr elements new row               Format the table  making the rows alternating colors and highlight the sorted column    makePretty table element indexCol ignoreLastLines         Assign correct sort image icon to current column title   sortColImage setAttribute  src  newSortColImage         Function used by the sort routine to compare the current value in the array with the next one function sortCompare  currValue  nextValue        Since the elements of this array are actually arrays themselves  just sort     on the first element which contiains the value  not the second which contains     the original row position   if   currValue 0     nextValue 0    return 0    if   currValue 0   lt  nextValue 0    return -1    if   currValue 0   gt  nextValue 0    return 1
