Is there a way to freeze the header row on the data tables here at RHP?
Most tables have several columns of data, and as you scroll down the page the column header that describes what data is in the column goes up and off the page. That makes it difficult to remember what the numbers in each column represent once you are down the page and looking at a data page with several columns.
Locking the column header would be a major improvement in using data tables, in my opinion! Would that be seriously difficult to modify?
Does anyone else have any thoughts on this idea?

With the new site they were working on at the time I guess it was low priority.
It will do no harm to raise it again.The my performance list is especially poor without a freeze titles option.

This change is now within reach for Firefox/GreaseMonkey (and possibly Chrome/TamperMonkey) users. Simply install the RHP 2013 Scroll Tables script frombigdogghouse.com/RHP/
This is a major improvement.

I use chrome and firefox, but what does the greasemonkey bit mean?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greasemonkey
The greasemonkey code is written to work with the RHP code, and once installed and tested it works fine WITH THE CURRENT VERSION of the RHP code. The greasemonkey code only makes changes to how the RHP code functions within your computer and web browser. It doesn't do anything to the RHP code that is located on the RHP server.
Whenever Russ modifies or upgrades the RHP code, there is a good chance that the greasemonkey script will also need to be upgraded to work with the new RHP code. If not upgraded, it might no longer work.
Currently SwissGambit has been going through some of the old scripts and upgrading them, and has also written new ones.
So this is my understanding of how it works, but someone else may be able to explain it better or make corrections to my explanation.
I hope this helps!

It's a Firefox add-on that allows you to run scripts that change the functionality of webpages. You can get it here.https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/greasemonkey/
Does the greasemonkey affect any other programmes?
I suspect it does.
I'm not the only person using the pc and I'm loth to download anything that may affect the stuff my missis does although I suppose I could always uninstall it again if necessary.
Originally posted by vendaIt only has an effect on how firefox works on websites, as far as I know. There are many scripts for greasemonkey that effect other websites, but if the only ones you install are those written for our RHP site, you will only see the difference on RHP.
