I came up with a solution for this exact problem a while back and wrote about it here
http://www.agavegroup.com/?p=31

It relies on only one extra div, then a className.  I often load the table normally, then onLoad, apply the classname to the table which resets it to being scrollable.

Hope it helps.

This solution is really cool. The programmer is simply putting the thead and

that is left in the div and it scrolls.

Thanks Scott for finding it.

I came across this

while scouring the web for fixed print header/footer solutions. It seems to
fit your requirements, though I haven't investigated/played with it myself.
