Fixed Headers for Scrolling Reports

Recent discussion about Visolve’s patch for the Layout Editor reminded me of a cool feature I developed recently for IPPF. This is a mostly-generic solution for keeping table headers visible in reports while the rest of the report scrolls. I ported it to current code and it’s the most recent commit here:

https://github.com/sunsetsystems/openemr/commits/rephead

It is implemented in many but not all reports so far. Anyone want to try it out and/or review? My test site for current dev code does not have much data in it, so kinda hard to give it a good workout.

Hi Rod,
Look good to me. I only tested the patient list report and confirmed the headers stays at top of screen when scroll down, which was very neat. If you’ve done testing on all the reports, then I think it’s ready for the codebase.

Perhaps we should place a bug to track this improvement in bugtracker? Then we’ll label the issue with desired release number. When releasing, Brady will be able to track all the changes that 'll go into the new release.

That seems useful if there is much to say… otherwise the commit comments are a good source for change info.
