Hi AJanz ...

Try this code:

<a4j:outputPanel layout="block" style="overflow:auto; height:150px;">
 <rich:dataTable width="100%" value="#{dataTableBean.list}" var="item">
 <rich:column>
 #{item.label}
 </rich:column>
 </rich:dataTable>
</a4j:outputPanel>

and how can I put a horizontal scrollbar?

I tried it with

<a4j:outputPanel layout="block" style="overflow:auto; width:150px;">

but no horizontal scrollbar appears.

Try to set "width" AND "height"

Thanks these worked.

<a4j:outputPanel layout="block" style="overflow:auto; width:480px; height:455px;">   

     <rich:dataTable....>                       

          <rich:column .... />

     </rich:dataTable>   

</a4j:outputPanel>

But this scrolls the entire table. Is there way to freeze the fist row like we do it in "scrollableDataTable", but using this component?

if it was so simple - there will be no need in our component

So probably the only way to use something like:

<div>

   <div> without scrolls

      <table>... frozen part

   </div>

   <div> with scrolls

      <table> scrollable part

   </div>

</div>

P.S. RF 4 extended table contains of all 3.3 features EDT and SDT unified.

The problem i was having was by default using 3.3.2.GA, extendedDataTable was not showing the "vertical scrollbar" in Firefox 3.6, IE7.

When I updated the version to "3.3.3.Final" and it WORKED for me.

I understand there is a jira-bug still open to be fixed with extendedDataTable using 3.3.2.GA on FF3.6, IE7 etc.
