Hi there. What is the use case for this?

[ollejacobsen]

Tag one/many row that will be sticky. In my case I needed the top row to be ignored when sorting. You can see a sample of this here on the top .. directory.

Kind regards, Olle

it's pretty easy to fix this manually. My solution:

pass a settings to the plugin, which I called skipRowsSelector and there one can pass a selector, then you simply need to find all the tr elements which are not the skipRowsSelector

.find("tbody").find("tr").not(settings.skipRowsSelector)

I think transforming this line into a settings function would allow this to be flexible enough to accommodate this request.

var trs = $table.children("tbody").children("tr");

Something like:

  $.fn.stupidtable.default_settings = {
    get_table_rows: function($table){
      return $table.children("tbody").children("tr");
    },
    ...
    ...
  };

And you could override this via

var $table = $("#mytable");
$table.stupidtable_settings({
    get_table_rows: function($table){
        return $table.children("tbody").children("tr").slice(1);
    }
});
$table.stupidtable();

This issue was created before the stupidtable_settings was introduced, but I think the settings infrastructure can accommodate it well.
