A scrolling table in the sense of the vertical scrollbar for the whole page. When you scroll the page the table headers stay visible when the table goes beyond the top of the screen.
3) It looks like "floatable-header" takes a similar approach to what I did in making column headers sticky, but they didn't do anything with the row headers which scroll out of view causing a potential disconnect with the data. Also, their column headers aren't sticky on mobile, just desktop.
Consecutive rows of column headers are top sticky, so avoid adding a row of headers right under the column headers that don't apply to the entire table such as a section header meant to visually separate the table. A solution might be to move each section to a column or separate tables, which also avoids accessibility issues per MOS:COLHEAD.
For example, nested tables (tables inside tables) should be separated into distinct tables when possible. Here is a more advanced example, showing some more options available for making up tables. Users can play with these settings in their own table to see what effect they have.
In the following example, five different tables are shown nested inside the cells of a sixth, main table. None has any header cells. Automatically, the two tables |A| and |B|B| are vertically aligned instead of the usual side-by-side of text characters in a cell. float is used to fix each of tables |C| and |D| to their own position within one ...
The scrollbar only appears if the table is actually wider than the page. This template allows up to 30 row headers passed as parameters to its {{Scrolling table/top}} subtemplate, for convenience. Extra row headers can be added using regular table syntax, between the {{Scrolling table/top}} and the {{Scrolling table/mid}} subtemplates
In tables, generally speaking, header cells are implicitly column scope unless the scope= attribute is provided. For a header cell at the top of a column of data cells, you can use an explicit scope="col" but don't need to. For header cells at the left of a row of data cells, such as the years in the Table 1 example, scope="row".
Make headers of tables display as long as the table is in view, i.e. "sticky" (requires Chrome v91+, Firefox v59+, or Safari)
