jquery-resizable-columns
Resizable table columns for jQuery. Live Demo
New and Improved! Now tested and working on Chrome & Firefox (Mac + Windows), and IE 9 + 10. Other browsers might work too, just haven't had time to check.
Size: < 8kb minified
Dependencies
- jQuery
- store.js (or anything similar) for localStorage persistence.
Simple Usage
<table> <thead> <tr> <th>#</th> <th>First Name</th> <th>Last Name</th> <th>Username</th> </tr> </thead> <tbody> ... </tbody> </table> <script> $(function(){ $("table").resizableColumns(); }); </script> Persist column sizes
To save column sizes on page reload (or js re-rendering), just pass an object that responds to get and set. You'll also have to give your <table> a data-resizable-columns-id attribute, and your <th>s data-resizable-column-id attributes.
<script src="libs/jquery.js"></script> <script src="libs/store.js"></script> <script src="jquery.resizableColumns.js"></script> <table data-resizable-columns-id="demo-table"> <thead> <tr> <th data-resizable-column-id="#">#</th> <th data-resizable-column-id="first_name">First Name</th> <th data-resizable-column-id="last_name">Last Name</th> <th data-resizable-column-id="username">Username</th> </tr> </thead> <tbody> ... </tbody> </table> <script> $(function(){ $("table").resizableColumns({ store: store }); }); </script> License

There's various versions of this plugin floating around the internet, but they're all outdated in one way or another. Thanks to http://robau.wordpress.com/2011/06/09/unobtrusive-table-column-resize-with-jquery/ for a great starting point.
