Freeze panes in VF and in Excel

Hi,

1. I'm trying to mimic "Freeze panes" as in excel, on a VF page.

I have a VF page that uses the apex : Datatable component.

I would like for the leftmost 3 columns to remain visible even when viewing the far right side of the table.

Any Ideas how I could do this? I considered using two datatables, one next to the other,
but how would I make sure they are vertically synchronized? (scrolling to item 100 on the one list should be reflected on the2nd list).

If you think this is a problematic issue, please consider promoting this idea:

2. I'm trying to have "Freeze Panes" in Excel, when rendering a data table as an Excel file.
I assume there is somekind of Div tag to do that. any thoughts?


Please help.
Thanks in advance.

Ben

sorry, there is no built in method for doing this, you may have to use a javascript library that has this feature
