thanks,

no, but you can 'build' such widgets just by using <div> elements as
containers for tables and using CSS. No J(ava)Script required.

No. The goal was a *fixed header*. To achieve that with `div' elements
you would need to have the `div' element as a direct descendant of the
`table' element which creates invalid HTML as `div' is not part of
`table''s content model.
and using CSS. No J(ava)Script required.

Correct:

<table>
<thead>
...
</thead>

<tfoot>
...
</tfoot>

<tbody style="height:50%; overflow:scroll">
...
</tbody>
</table>

Alas, this still waits for implementation in some widely used browsers.
