I had a play with non scrolling titles here (in IE 6)  - code a bit buggy
and messy.

Thought there might be an inbuilt function, but maybe not!

The only way, I could figure how to do it, was:

1. Set a stationary <div> for the table heading.
2. The rest of the table content in a separate <div>
3. Navigation would then reposition the content <div>, up or down etc.
4. Key:  Based on the navigation, show the relevant clip of the content div.
  eg document.getElementById("content").style.clip="rect(whatever)"

Dont' see why it wouldn't work as easily horizontally, but I'd question the
wisdom of doing it!
