I have a table in the HTML and the table contents are injected by JavaScript to HTML.
I have plans to change the table to some nice layout using Jquery plugins. The jQuery grid/table mush have property of Fixed header.
Which one would you all suggest?
[Description: I have a JavaScript that gathers data from few sources and prepares HTML elements and puts that on the HTML as a table. The backend code (i.e. the JavaScript) is quite big and i do not want to modify it. Only minor modification i would like to do, for this purpose i would like to replace the table with any grid. ]
DataTables is certainly a good choice but can give a bit of overhead on client side, in terms of functionalities and code/images downloaded by the client.
Decide what you want to achieve and choose the minimum.
For example, do you need to style your table only? Do what DataTables does by yourself as explained in
