Coincidentally, I just finished a similar table using backbone. It isn't nearly as feature-rich, but it has sortable, movable, resizable columns, and a mechanism for adding filter fields. It was built for a specific purpose in an existing project, but I was actually going to work on turning it into a standalone library and writing a blog piece on it after work today.

Please do so, the more the merrier. I'll read it.

Would this be close to what you are looking for: http://datatables.net/blog/Introducing_Scroller_-_Virtual_Sc...

Ah yes, I've looked at Datatables before. I think it doesn't allow plugging in arbitrary, lazy, client-side data sources though, can anybody confirm this? If so, that's a pretty big hole in its API and a showstopper for me.

At any rate, thanks for the heads up.

I second this. Any recommendations? ReclineJS is OK but have not had great success with it -- wraps Slickgrid. This table may be enough to make me jump into EmberJS from Backbone.
