I envisage this working much like an embeded <iframe> structure within the <table> e.g. <table scrollable=yes|no|horizontal|vertical|, headers=fixed, frame=200,400> in order to do this well we would need to define the 'display' size, including or excluding header columns/rows so the addtional options headers and frame are added 82120 1 eoconnor 2013-01-25 01:32:01 +0000 EDITOR'S RESPONSE: This is an Editor's Response to your comment.

For more details, see this document: http://dev.w3.org/html5/decision-policy/decision-policy.html Status: Rejected Change Description: No spec change.

Note that they are working on a new 'display' value, 'sticky', which would provide such a feature.
