I have a requirement to display a large table of data on a web page, with the further requirement that it be both horizontally and vertically scrollable and that the top row and left column are 'fixed'.
I'm not an html expert and I was surprised how difficult it was to fulfill what I thought was a simple requirement.
I rigged up a working prototype using RichFaces but it feels unnecessarily clunky in the way it works and formatting is an absolute nightmare.
Is there a simpler way to achieve thing? I can find many examples on the internet that do some of the things required, but precious few that do it all.
Embedding Excel is not an option (but would be ideal in many ways).
