Nested tables where the nested tables have different columns

jonfreed

Does anybody have an example of nested tables where the nested tables have columns that are different from their parent rows?

I am looking for something that works like this: http://www.jqwidgets.com/jquery-widgets-demo/demos/jqxdatatable/javascript-datatable-nested-tables.htm?arctic

It seems that this question was asked before, but that thread is closed. And, only the last person in that thread addressed this issue and he (JerryKur) didn't provide a link to a working example. See here: http://datatables.net/forums/discussion/1609/nested-tables

Here's a page with sample data that should give a better picture of what I'm trying to accomplish, which also includes sticky headers. http://live.datatables.net/wagubase/1/

However, the data would eventually be coming in a JSON format. (I'm not sure if that makes any difference.)

Mostly nevermind! I found relatively-recent a reply by Allan that led me to this page, and I now understand that the drill-down row (aka the child row) can have anything in it, including a second table that is completely different from the parent table.

However, this does not resolve my question about sticky headers. I want (1) the parent table's header to be sticky, (2) the parent table's parent row to be sticky, and (3) the child table's header to be sticky.
