    <h2>HTML structure</h2> <p>I've got the following html structure: <strong>This is a fixed structure that I can't edit</strong></p> <pre><code>&lt;div class="separator"&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;table class="myClass"&gt; &lt;thead&gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;th&gt;title1&lt;/th&gt; &lt;th&gt;title2&lt;/th&gt; &lt;/tr&gt; &lt;/thead&gt; ... &lt;/table&gt; &lt;div class="separator"&gt;&lt;/div&gt; </code></pre> <hr> <h2>CSS</h2> <p>The first and last div are separators whose css is:</p> <pre><code>.separator { height: 20px; background-color: gray; } </code></pre> <p><strong>Note that separators are complex widgets and not only design (I've intentionnaly simplified the example)</strong></p> <hr> <h2>The problem</h2> <p>I want to position the table header <strong>before</strong> the first separator but the table body must remain between the two separators.</p> <hr> <h2>What I have tried</h2> <ol> <li><p>Here is the initial jsfiddle for testing: <a href="http://jsfiddle.net/prhgW/1/" rel="nofollow">http://jsfiddle.net/prhgW/1/</a></p></li> <li><p>I've tried to position absolute the thead tag and use negative top values but when doing so, the width of the thead is smaller than 100% of the table and so column titles are misplaced regarding the column value. the fiddle: <a href="http://jsfiddle.net/prhgW/2/" rel="nofollow">http://jsfiddle.net/prhgW/2/</a></p></li> <li><p>I've also tried to put the width at 100% but the tr tag do not follow that rules : <a href="http://jsfiddle.net/prhgW/3/" rel="nofollow">http://jsfiddle.net/prhgW/3/</a></p></li> </ol> <hr> <h2>Additional rules</h2> <ul> <li>I would like to avoid fixed width/height of the table or any element (so, absolute positioning everything is not acceptable solution)</li> <li>I would like cross browser compatibility</li> <li>avoid javascript fix (pure css would be better)</li> </ul>

    1. COIf you give a fixed width to `<tr>` first children it behaves like you wanted - http://jsfiddle.net/prhgW/9/ But is it OK to use a fixed width in your case?

    2. CONo, I can't use fixed width or height. I can use percentage but that's all.

    3. COIs it okay to use jquery/javascript in your case? Otherwise i don't think your going to get the width of the two top th tags to be the same as the td of the table below it

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
