Topic: MDBDatatable fixedHeader not working ?

Bridget Melvin premium asked 2 years ago


Expected behavior I have a datatable in App.js with a maxHeight property and fixedHeader property set. When I scroll on the table I expect the header row to stay put.

Actual behavior the header row scrolls with the rest of the table. Is it because I'm using styled-components?

Resources (screenshots, code snippets etc.)

This is a bug, I have already fixed it. Will be available in the next release.



Could you check if class fixed-cell is applied to every th element? In the browser devtools of course.


Bridget Melvin premium commented 2 years ago

it is not applying to any th element. I get <th class scope="row" style="cursor: pointer;">...</th>


Bridget Melvin premium commented 2 years ago

If it is a bug, what can I add via styled-components to th element to make it work?
