Resizable, sortable, findable and scrollable HTML table

P: 14
I figured I would post my solution to the following.

Resizable column tables.
Search and replace values in a table. (IE only)
Scrollable tables.
Sortable tables.

It is based on a lot examples I found on the web. Works in IE and mozilla.

http://www.imaputz.com/cssStuff/bigFourVersion.html
http://www.thescripts.com/forum/thre...resizable.html
http://www.kryogenix.org/code/browser/sorttable/

Todo.
Resize table.
Search and replace values in Mozilla.

Any suggestions or examples on the todo list would be greatly appreciated.

Please help me out. Your script is not working in Mozilla but good in IE.The problem is with DOCTYPE in mozilla.If i remove the doctype from the page it is working but making my page layout weird.But no problem with IE8 even if i keep DOCTYPE.
