For a start, not a replacement for a hacker producing something for you, you might want
to investigate what some of the existing jQuery plug-ins (not the cool/kewl UI widgets)
can do already. Try http://plugins.jquery.com/projects/plugins?type=54 As part of a
similar investigation I have been impressed with the functionality of
"Datatables" from that list. I have not used it in anger yet, but it does a lot
of what you are looking for.
Yes, Datatables does have a lot to offer, and I have begun to implement it at
the following URL:

Thank you very much!
Maybe you also want to consider the YUI datatable, it is very powerful
and flexible, also comes with great documentation:
