Please Make Your Table Headings Sticky

I often stumble upon large data sets or table layouts across the web. When these tables contain hundreds of rows of content, things become problematic once you start to scroll…

+

Your browser does not support the video tag. +

Look at that table header disappear! Now, if I scroll all the way down to item #300 (for example) will I remember what each column’s data is associated with? If this is my first time looking at this table - probably not. Luckily we can fix this (no pun intended!) with a tiny amount of CSS.

Pretty awesome, right? It might look like magic but it’s actually very easy to implement. You only need to add 2 CSS properties on your thead:

+
position: sticky;
+top: 0;
+
+

That’s it! Best of all, sticky has ~96% global support which means this isn’t some “bleeding-edge” property and can safely support a ton of browsers. Not to mention the improved experience for your end-users!

You can view a live demo of this table on the CodePen example pen.
