add floatThead to improve UX when scrolling in large tables about compat-table HOT 6 CLOSED

Sure, I'm open to trying it out. Let's see how it looks.

Ok, ill open a pull request some time later today. I was looking at your html and noticed that you are using <colgroup> in a way that is not supported by my plugin because the number of <col> elements in the group dont match the number of columns in the table. Is there an important reason for your use of colgroup? Ill probably have to take it out and restyle the table to work without it before I add floatThead

So I looked at it today. Its going to require substantial changes because your css selectors expect a single table and the plugin creates another table (containing the header), so much css will need to be rewritten. Also, you don't use jquery - and people who do that usually do it intentionally. Using the plugin requires jquery.

So, do you still want me to continue even if I have to rewrite some of your css and probably some javascript?

Yeah, I never included jQuery because there was no terrible need for it and it was nice keeping page nice and lightweight. I'm not against including it and rewriting JS/CSS if it'll aid usability, so feel free to go ahead and do it. Thanks!

ok, ill put it on my todo list - it will be a somewhat big rewrite that will touch some of your js and css.
I havent had much time lately to devote to fun projects but I will get back to this as soon as I do

I'm closing this due to inactivity, and also due to the fact the codebase has probably changed substantially since this claim was made.
