So you're saying you need to use js to sync the two tables so that
you can use different styling for the header? Sounds like you
should be updating your html markup instead.
Header cells should be using th tags.
<table>
<thead>
<tr>
<th>Header1</th><th>Header2</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>Cell1</td><td>Cell2</td>
</tr>
.... etc...
</tbody>
</table>
Sorry David, you missed the point. i have 2 tables. One has only
header so <thead><tr><th>...</th></tr></thead>
and the other one as only data cell <tbody><tr><td>...</td></tr></tbody>
what you wrote is a typicall table in html.

I knew you had 2 tables, and sorry if I came across as condescending (a
lot of people don't realize tables can have a header section). I'm just
trying to figure out why you need to have it split into two tables. Are
you trying to have the header cells follow the page as you scroll? If
so, you'd be better off using jQuery to detach the thead portion, and
sync that instead. That way it'll gracefully degrade with
browsers/screen-readers without javascript. My brother was working on a
jQuery plugin that does this.
