Hi Everyone,

Is there a way where the column width in richfaces extended data table automatically expands to accomodate the data in the table.

The column width cannot be hard-coded as the project is driven from the database.

Based on the data in the table, the column width should expand automatically and will be provided with a horizontal scroll.

The first column should not wrap itself and the data in the table should be completely visible ( not hidden or overlaid by the column border)

<h:form>
    <h:panelGrid>
        <rich:panel header="Login">
            <rich:extendedDataTable id="sampleData1" value="#{person.dataModel}" var="item" rows="10" 
                selectionMode="single"
                selection="#{person.dataModel.selection}">

                <a4j:ajax event="selectionchange" execute="@form" 
                    listener="#{person.dataModel.selectionListener}" />
                <rich:column>
                    <f:facet name="header">Modelasdfkjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjj asdklfjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjj asdklfjjjjjjjjjj</f:facet>
                    <h:outputText value="#{item.model}" />
                </rich:column>
                <rich:column>
                    <f:facet name="header">Mileagea</f:facet>
                    <h:outputText value="#{item.mileage}" />
                </rich:column>
            </rich:extendedDataTable>
            <rich:dataScroller for="sampleData1" />
        </rich:panel>
    </h:panelGrid>
</h:form>
