This method is not working in IE 8

Can you provide us with code that works in IE8 also?

Hi, Srinivas. I tested the code in IE8 and previous versions, in Firefox, and in other browsers. Even tested it on Safari for Windows.

I suspect your problem is that you are looking at the example where there *isn't* a locked header row. (Note the "unlocked.aspx" page.) Click the link for the sample with the locked header row and you'll see it working.

Thanks.

Thanks for the post but this really does NOT work with IE8.. I am also fighting for IE8 fix for the problem..

Thanks

What problem are you having with IE8? When I browse http://www.jimcobooks.com/lockedgrid/locked.aspx in IE 8 (I just did it), it works perfectly.

Nice & clean, but what I'd like to see is a version that works when you don't set column widths, ie let the browser handle column widths based on content. I haven't seen anything that can handle this cleanly...
