I am trying to add a scrollable grid to a mobile web site I am currently working on. I've tried using the jQuery Scrollable Table Plugin written by farinspace, which works fine in IE8 but doesn't work at all in Opera Mobile for Windows. I've also tried using the Telerik MVC Grid extension, and that also will not give me a scrollable grid.
So, before I give up on the idea and switch to using a paging grid, has anyone ever got anything like this working on Opera Mobile?
I actually gave up on this, as I don't think it would have worked very well at all. Just not a very nice user experience.
What I've gone with is to display the table in it's entirety with no scrolling or paging enabled. So, I am relying purely on the scrolling capability of the browser.
It seems to work really nicely on my blackberry and I think will be nice to use on a touch smart phone too, as the user can just swipe their thumb/finger to scroll down and check the list. Then just swipe back to the top of the list to press the relevant button.
Actually, thinking about it, i might provide a "back to top" link under the grid :)
